It's an autocorrect spelling thing. Excel thinks you misspelled BE.

To remove that rule from the library...
Goto the menu ToolsAutoCorrect Options
Type BVE in the Replace box and BE will appeat in the With box
Click Delete
OK

Deleting an autocorrect rule will apply to *all* of the MS applications that
use an autocorrect feature. They all use the same library.

why is it when you type "BVE" onto a cell it changes it to BE?
