Hello,

You can convert the formulas to only keep the values by doing a
copy/paste special where what you will keep are only the numbers. To
do: select the cells, copy (CTRL-C or Edit > Copy) and then paste
special (Edit > Paste Special), and select to keep only the numbers.
You may be prompted to inform you that you are pasting over existing
data: if so, just accept. Then, if you look in the cells, you should
now only have the results of the cells. I recommend you paste to a new
worksheet to keep the formulas intact for a future use.

I hope this helps.
Rémy.
