parentheses around a capital C

[gailrolfe]

Whenever I try to put parentheses around a capital C, like this: (C), in a
column in my worksheet, it converts it to a copyright symbol and I can't
figure out how to overrule the conversion. Can anyone help? Thanks, Gail

That is part of Autocorrect... Look at Tools -> AutoCorrect and delete (or
better modify) the autocorrect on (C).

Thank you! Solved the problem...so obvious once I know! Gail

BTW, if you want to keep Correct intact and simply
use UNDO ( Ctrl+Z) immediately after entry.
If you have an event macro running you cannot use UNDO.
AutoCorrect applies to all of Office, so what is good for MS Word
in not so good for Excel.
