Hello. I'm using this code and it works as intended but it's lengthy. The first part may have to stay but is there a way to loop the 'replacement' part of it? The whole thing looks too long for what I'm trying to do. As a matter of fact I would like to keep the formulae in there respective cells but all of a sudden my formulas are disappearing. I put in the formula and it disappears leaving the sum. The sum in correct but the next time I use it, well... Is there a reason for this? I've been reading about formatting issues and I've removed it all and it still remains a problem. I would really appreciate any help. Thank you.

Excel Facts

What is the last column in Excel?
Excel columns run from A to Z, AA to AZ, AAA to XFD. The last column is XFD.

These 2 lines are removing the formulas and keeping the values. These are the only lines in your posted code that are not indented. So maybe they were added after?

VBA Code: 
Range("$W$4:$AX$34").Copy
Range("$W$4").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues

Well, I added those lines after the formulas disappeared. What I had were the formulas in their respective cells. I noticed that the sums were not changing when information was added to the worksheet. I checked and the formulas were gone but prior values remained. The above code is what I had to put in to make sure the formulas were still there. ?

In this case, .xlPasteValues essentially removes the formula leaving the value of the formula behind
Probably need more information though.
Next time you run it, check and see if your formulas--> Calculation Options--> are set to "Automatic". If they are set to "Manual" that may keep them from Recalculating.

You could force a re-calculate before your paste values statement.
VBA Code: 
Range("$W$4:$AX$34").Calculate
Range("$W$4:$AX$34").Copy
Range("$W$4").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues

This is the code I'm using. I inadvertently included the Copy and paste values. What I'm looking for is if there's a way to 'loop' the code so that it will run faster or, in my case, better.

Try this loop in place of your "replace" statements.

VBA Code: 
Dim iRow As Integer
Dim iEmp As Integer
    iEmp = 2

    For iRow = 6 To 34 'Rows 6 thru 34
        Range("W" & iRow & ":AX" & iRow).Replace What:="Emp1", Replacement:="Emp" & iEmp
        iEmp = iEmp + 1
    Next iRow
