Whenever I type in an email address it seems to create a link to my email
site. I don't want a link , I just want the address for reference. Can I shut
this feature off?

Precede the entry with an apostrophe, or type them in, then copy an empty cell,
select the email address (obviosuly by using the arrow keys and shift since
you don't want to start your email program), then do editpaste special and
select add

Thanks for your quick reply. However, I went to "Tools - autocorrection" (I
have Excel 2003) and could not find anything to turn off resembling that
feature. Meanwhile, another reply suggested using the apostophe in front of
the email address, which works, but I'd like to eliminate the feature. Thanks
again.

That worked. I only wish that there was an "on-off" function that would not
make those steps necessary.
