Hello J -
This is evidence of a feature called AutoCorrect, but it's simple enough to
deal with in several ways
If it's just an occasional thing simply type the (c) as you normally would
then immediately key Command+Z (Undo).
If you want to permanently change the behavior go to Tools> AutoCorrect,
select the item in the list (it's the very first one) the either modify the
"trigger" characters [I've reset mine to )c which is never used for anything
else] or Delete the entry altogether if you never have a need for © or would
prefer to use a different means when it is needed.

In Excel I'm trying to simply use this, (C) to indicate a cell phone number
and Excel keeps defaulting to the copyright sympbol (small c with a circle
around it). How can I format this so this symbol will NOT appear?
