Find/Replace Question

This happens almost everytime I use Find/Replace, but I just deal with
it. Maybe you guys can set me straight on this.

I have the following formula:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(MOD(ROW($AB$14:$AB$1008)-ROW($AB$14),4)=0),--(ISNUMBER($AB$14:$AB$1008)),--($AB$14:$AB$1008>0))

I want to replace all of the ABs with AK. So what I do is highlight
the formula, (Excel 2007) go to Home>Find and Select>Replace>
Find what: AB
Replace with: AK

Replace>Close

However, after I have done that I have to hit enter, and then I have
to hit UNDO to get the desired result.

There must be something simple I'm doing wrong. I use this feature
all the time, but it's frustrating having to go through this every
time.

Thanks in advance

Works OK for me in Excel 2207.

It's working fine for me too now. I don't know what changed, but all
off a sudden it started working correctly. But it reverts to this
periodically, and I have no idea why. Maybe I need to upgrade to
2207...:-)
