I need to remove the function from one of my columns in a document. The
other columns have a common function, but I need to use symbols in the first
column that are not allowed in a function is in place. Can this be done?

Can you describe in somewhat more detail:
a) what you have
b) what you try to achieve

Hi Niek,
I have done this before but can't for the life of me remember how I did it.
Basically I need to enter info in the first column of my report that uses
characters normally used in the formula function. I am getting an error
that won't allow me to type what I need to put into column A.
