My mistake, you need to remove the hyperlink first.

Right-click on the cell, choose "Remove Hyperlink"

Then

1. Hit F2 to edit the cell
2. 'Home' key to go to beginning of cell
3. Type ' (single apostrophe)

This should fix the cell. If you have a lot of cells to fix, highlight
them, then

1. Alt-F11 to open the VB Editor
2. Ctrl-G to open Immediate Window
3. Type "selection.hyperlinks.delete" (without quotes) and hit Enter

Immediate Window type in 'selection.hyperlinks.delete'

don't know what I did, but when I tried to modify one addy, it turned

What happened to make this a link and how do I undo it? Thanks - Mike- Hide quoted text -
