I want to select range and run such Command/Tool that modifies current values of the range by simple formula (+, -, *, /) and pastes result values instead the original ones. Is this possible by the standard means of Excel?

If you want to Add, Subtract, Multiply, Divide the content of all cells in a range with a constant value you can do like this:
1) Put the constant, e.g. 7, in an unused cell. 2) Right click on the cell and chose "Copy" 3) Select the range 4) Right click and chose "Paste Special..." 5) In the dialog, chose the wanted Operation, e.g. Add 6) Click on OK 7) All values in the range have now been changed and you can delete the constant
hi not sure if i understand but if you want to add 2 to a number of cells in a range (or mutiply, subtract, divide), enter a 2 (or whatever number you need) into a cell off to the side and copy it. then use pasted special>Add (or mutiply, subtract, divide).

hi no, not that i know of. excel need a way to know what to add( or mutiply, subtract, divide) to all the cells. and in my last post, i seem to have forgotten to mention to high light all the cells first. then do the copy/paste special. the operation will only effect high lighted cells.
