The formula will come back as text. You need to reformat the cells to
general, and then do a find replace on the = sign to activate the formulas...

Jim,

When i use replace in menu Edit-Replace works very well.

But my code don't work
Worksheets(2).Columns("B").Replace What:="=", Replacement:="=",
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder _
:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False

What's wrong ?
