Default How do I add "@" into a field without making it concatenate?

Assuming your data is in column A starting A1, enter the following in B1

=A1&"@xxx"

Drag it down as far as needed.

I have a column of user names, to which I need to add "@xxx" to each name.
I
tried adding a new column & putting in the "@xxx" with the thought that I
could then put the 2 columns together. However, the @ symbol is
recognized
as concatenate within excel & it will not allow me to do that. Any ideas?
