On a monthly basis, I run an analysis on a few entities based on certain criteria. To speed up the process, the analysis is driven by formula from the separate analysis tabs. This month I would create a May analysis driven by formulas. Above the May I have the same exact analysis tables for June-December (December being very top). After analysis is completed i can simply copy, paste value May. What’s the quickest way to copy the May formulas to June through December. I previously used the indirect function, which was better than nothing, but there has to be an even faster way for Excel to know that I want to preserve the same exact formulas.
 
At this point I can highlight everything, paste value to get rid of the formulatext like i did before.
I used your find and replace = to =. It worked :)
To give you an idea, just in this sheet alone i have 9 entities, 9 analytic for budget, 9 analytic for average, and 7 months left in the year.
You pretty much saved me from hitting F2 - Enter 1134 times. I also have 5 sheets in total. So approximately, F2-enter 5,000 times.
sheetspread, my hero :)
