Chris,

Copy it, activate a cell (in a sufficiently large, unused range), go to the formula bar, type =, paste it, and enter.

Go to cell where all this is, select a big enough range, hit control+shift+enter. Copy the selection and do Edit|Paste Special >Values. Clear the cells that contain errors.
