Hi, I have text throughout a worksheet that look like this, for exampe:

%&%a1

I can run a macro to replace %&% with =, and that "turns on" the formulas.

However, I the formulas in question are much more complicated, and they need
an aray input -- control shift enter.  

I tried recording a macro that would replace all regular formulas with aray
formulas -- but it wouldn't record.

Does anyone have any code that would replace all the regular formulas on a
worksheet with Aray formulas?

and since I"m already asking the question, out of curiosity, what code would
convert to aray formulas for just a section of the worksheet?

Separately, I have a follow up nonessential question for anyone interested
-- all of these aray formulas slow up my workbook -- any direction as to
creating a macro that would take the place of these aray formulas -- that way
I run the macro and it refreshes the data?  

those were a lot of questions.  thanks very much for thinking about it.
