if you want to do it with a one-liner (or look at the code to do it in a program), get excelPerl from ExcelPerl 0.12 released and try something like
Update: Sorry, I misread you. The code for ExcelPerl would be (if your col is number 2):
excelPerl.pl -ane "$C->[2]->{FormulaLocal} .= '+99'" -f test.xls
If you have got a headline in the first row, just skip it with the additional parameter -h=1
Code to convert excel to csv with formulas (doesn't match the question):
perl excelPerl.pl -begin "use Text::CSV_XS; $csv = Text::CSV_XS->new(
+{ binary => 1 } )" -ane "$csv->combine( map { $_->{FormulaLocal} } @C
+); print $csv->string, $/" -f test.xls
which produces something like
a,b,a+b
1,4,=A2+B2
2,5,=A3+B3
3,2,=A4+B4
4,1,=A5+B5
5,5,=A6+B6
Best regards,
perl -e "s>>*F>e=>y)\*martinF)stronat)=>print,print v8.8.8.32.11.32"

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>

-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
