Default Easily convert all formulas in 3d spreadsheet to values?

I have a large Excel 3-D workbook with 40 sheets, each with multiple complex
formulas.
At the end of each month I archive the sheet and would like to convert the
formulas into values to reduce the size of the workbook.
Can this be done in a few easy steps, as I don't want to copy and special
paste as values 40 times over?

Thanks

Hi

Group the sheets first, then select all of the cells on the visible sheet
(Ctrl+A) and Paste Special/Values.

Don't forget to ungroup the sheets after!

Record a Macro (ToolsMacroRecord...) that copies and PasteSpecials each
sheet. Add a hot key (like Ctrl-V) to convert them all to values. Then all
you have to do is press your hot key.
