What version of Excel and what format are you saving the workbook as?

And you're saving the file as a normal workbook (*.xls), right?

You're not saving it as a .CSV file or .Prn file. Both of these are plain old
text files. Only values are saved in these types of files.

Are you saving as an Excel workbook *.xls

If not.....then what?

Might be you could try re-entering the formulas then copy the sheet to a new
workbook and save that, making sure you are saving as an Excel workbook.

Check your Tools>Options>Transition>Save Excel files as: setting.
