Thank you everybody! That should work. I changed a couple of other
auto-correct items while I was in there.

Actually, the original page work once I deleted the # in the cell before it
and the "-" in the cell after it. Why this should work I have no idea, but
it did.

I am trying to enter a form number for a description, 668-W(c), and every
time I enter it, the (c) changes to the copyright symbol, and no matter what
I do it won't accept plain text. I used a ', I changed it to text, I tried
to put that as a special formatting, it just won't accept it.

Any suggestions?
