I have a column that contains email addresses. If I click on the cell, it brings up a blank email with the persons address in it. (Outlook Express).
Is there a way to block that column from executing the email thing?

You can remove the hyperlinks one by one by right clicking on the cell and choosing remove hyperlink from the menu.
If you have a whole column then the best way to get rid of the lot of 'em is to highlight the range and click on Format, Style and then select Normal from the list box at the top.

You know this is sooooo much easier than trying to figure out where to find the info in a mannual. Thanks so much for the prompt responses.
Just an added note here Penfold, When trying to change the whole range by using styles, it did take the blue color and line underneath out, but it still links when clicked on. Unless I did something wrong, I guess to totally deactivate them, I'll have to do the right click thing individually. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
Good point, I hadn't really noticed as the main issue I had in the past was that it was blue and underlined!
I can't readily find a method quicker than doing it one by one, but remember to use the extremely useful "Repeat" function in Excel (either Ctrl-Y or better still, F4). That is, do it once using the right click method and then arrow down one cell, hit F4, down, F4 etc etc.

That worked Pen. Thanks. I always feel so much smarter (advanced) if I can use an F key.

Just ran across this Penny:
To create the macro, press Alt-F11 to activate the Visual Basic Editor, select Insert, Module to insert a new VBA module into your project, and then enter the following code:
Sub ZapHyperlinks()
Cells.Hyperlinks.Delete
End Sub
When you execute the ZapHyperlinks macro, all hyperlinks on the active sheet are deleted and replaced with normal text.
