when I copy my contents with formulas to another workbook it copies only contents. I want it to copy as formula too.

How I can do it?
 

Excel Facts

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
Which version of Excel are you using?
How exactly are you copying from one sheet to the other (there are different methods)?

So you are saying if you have the following:

Cell A1: 1
Cell A2: 2
Cell A3: =A1+A2

and you copy these three cells to another workbook, it pastes the value of "3" in cell A3 instead of =A1+A2. Is that correct?

I have Excel 2007 and cannot replicate that behavior. I wonder if there is some setting to change the default behavior of Control-V so that it does a "Paste Special Values" instead of "Paste".

What happens if you use Copy/Paste (from right click of the mouse)?
Does it exhibit the same behavior?
