Excel 2003 autofill "object" eyesore

[Steve]

In Excel 2003 when I do an autofill (grab the corner of a
cell and drag across several cells) I get an ugly
autofill icon named "Auto Fill Options" that does
not appear in earlier versions. this thing is useless
and hideous - and I can't find a way to supress this
eyesore so it no longer appears. Any ideas? Thanks!

I feel your pain.... In Office XP, not sure if it's the same in
all...but go to the Tools menu, select Options, choose the Edit tab,
under settings on the right hand side, uncheck the box that says "Show
Paste Option Buttons".

Have a good day,
