    Excel: How to NOT have email addresses "auto link"
    When I enter an email address in a cell, it becomes a mailto link.

    How can I turn this off?

    (I want to leave it on for entered url's though)

    Thanks!

    Put an apostrophe as the first character of the mailto text

    Ex: 'mailto:[email protected]

    Excel strips out the apostrophe and you end up with text only.
