Change the formulas to their calculated values

YLC Utilities logo

Number & Date > Change formulas to their calculated values

This utility replaces formulas in selected cells with their calculated values.

The utility works in the same way as LO Calc "Copy > Paste > Paste Value" , but in one step, and also works with several non-contiguous areas of cells at the same time.

Typically, the utility changes formulas to their calculated values in both visible and hidden cells. If you selected cells in the filtered list, only the visible cells change.

For example, a cell with a formula «=D2*E2» , which has "200" as a calculated result will be replaced by the value 200 .

This can be useful, for example, if you want to speed up calculations in your workbook, or if you don't want anyone to see the basic formulas you've used if you give the workbook to someone else.
