edI recently upgraded from Office97 to Office 2003. In Excel 97 when I typed
(R) that's what I got. Now, in Excel 2003, when I type (R) it automatically
gets converted to the register symbol (the letter r in a cicrle). I have a
spreadsheet on movies I've taped and always list the film's rating, i.e.,
(G), (PG), (PG13), (R), etc.

In Excel, click on Tools | AutoCorrect Options | AutoCorrect tab, and
delete the AutoCorrect entry for (r).

Go to menu Tools>Autocorrect. You should see an entry for (r) in there,
juste delete it.

Go to Tool, Auto Correct Options and delet (r) from the list.

Accurate information from all, but deleting AutoCorrect items can limit you
if you ever want to use the items you delete from AutoCorrect.

You can also simply UnDo (Ctrl+z) once the replacement is triggered to
revert to the data as typed. That technique allows the AutoCorrect item to be
available when needed.

Hope this is useful |:>)
