How do I turn off smart tags.

[Guest]

When doing anything, particularly in Excel 2003, smart tags keep popping up
and I find them extremely annoying. Is there any way to turn them off
permanently

In the help index, type in smart tag

Tools>Autocorrect Options>Smart Tags.

Uncheck the option "label data with smart tags"

I have done this, yet the smart tags keep appearing.

Maybe you aren't seeing "smart tags" but error-checking arrows?

Tools>Options>Error Checking. Disable the feature.

Or possibly you are seeing Paste Options or Insert Options buttons.

Disable them under Tools>Options>Edit.
