In xl2003 menus:

Tools|autocorrect options|autocorrect tab
Look for (C) and delete that entry.

You could also hit Edit|Undo (or Ctrl-z) to change it back as soon as excel
"helps" out.

Tools-AutoCorrect

You will see there that there is a definition replace (C) with ©

If you change that to replace (C) with (C), it will prevent the ©, However,
I think this is a global setting so that it will always ignor © from that
point forward and you will have to insert that characer as a symbal. Not sure
if this is what you actually want to do???

Does this help????

Thank you. It was a little thing but it was bugging me. Is it hard to add
the copyright icon back to Autocorrect? Don't bother responding, I should at
least attempt it myself before asking. Thank you again.

If you're afraid to delete it, just change the "from" string to something that
you'll never see in real life:

Have (C)asdfasdf corrected to the copyright symbol (for example).
