Replace "Expected =" error

[tjiddy89]

I have an excel spreadsheet that I am trying to remove a substring from the cell and insert into an adjacent cell - mimicking the "Insert Copied Cells" feature in Excel. Problem is that when I try to utilize Replace it gives me "Expected =" as an error. I realize with the current code I would only be able to remove the substring, but I can try to figure out the cut and insert method myself first. Any tips or help would be greatly appreciated.

Sub fixSheet()

    Dim lRow As Integer, rng As Integer, char As Integer, str As String, totstr As String


    lRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
    
    Worksheets(1).Range("A1:A" & lRow).Select
    
    word = "KB-"


  For Each cell In Selection
  
    char = InStr(cell.Value, word)
        
    If char <> 0 Then
      str = Mid(cell.Value, char)
      totstr = ", " & str
      Replace(cell.value,totstr,"")
      char = 0
      str = ""
    End If
    
  Next cell


End Sub

My apologies. I've just realized that I was not assigning the function to a cell which caused the error.
