I try typing the stock symbol ACN into a cell and CAN appears. What's causing this and how can I avoid this ?
Thanks,

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.

Look into Tools|Autocorrect. That must be the culprit.
