(C) and copyright symbol
 

When I enter (C) into a cell, it appears as the copyright symbol. I don't
want the copyright symbol, I just want it to be (C) ! How can I stop
this... at the moment I am putting a space in front of the brackets, but
would prefer not to have to do that.

See 'this post' (http://tinyurl.com/cfgqe9) for the same question.

(C) and copyright symbol
 

1) Change the setting in AutoCorrect
or
2) Right after you get the copyright symbol, use CTL+Z (Undo)

Hi Bernard,

Actually that trick works in Word but not in Excel.

In Excel type (C) spacebar this will convert the entry to a copyright. Now
press Ctrl+Z and Enter.

In 2003: You can eliminate the Auto Correct action by choose Tools, Auto
Correct Options and selecting and deleting the (c).

In 2007: Choose Office Button, Excel Options, Proofing, AutoCorrect Options
and select the (c) and Delete it.
