Recently upgraded to Excel v11.6560.6568. I have a file consisting of
email addresses (one per cell) saved from a much older spreadsheet
(Works 5.0). When making additions to the file using the new version,
Excel wants to create a mail link in each cell that launches Outlook
Express every time I click on the cell. No good....I want just plain
text in each cell throughout the file. What setting do I need to
change to accomplish this? Thanks in advance.

Tools>Autocorrect Options>Autoformat as you type.

Uncheck "internet and network paths etc."
