For me it seems to suffice to just press Ctrl+Z (Undo) after "=RAND()" is
converted to quick brown foxes.

Thank you for your help. I'll take your advice. If I loose the "feature"
forever, I will not cry.

fields.
However, I you want to be able to enable the €śfeature€ť again, you may

want to use that method - it seems as if it is gone even if the
AutoCorrect
entry is deleted (so who knows, I may regret that I tried...).

I am using Word to document some Excel spreadsheets. In Excel
=RAND()
is a valid formula. When I enter this my my document, Word
converts it
into
gibberish.
How do I disable this feature?
