majidsiddique52075 , you can't replace the value in another cell without VBA programming, formula returns the result of the calculations into the cell where this formula is.

 

As for formula, MATCH returns #N/A error if match is not found, with that error entire formula also returns the same error. You may wrap the MATCH with IFNA or IFERROR to handle such situation.

 

REPLACE(A19,1,11,F19) takes text from A19, replaces it's first eleven characters with the text from F19 and returns result into the cell where this formula is.
