I'm trying to put an & in a footer of a spreadsheet, but it does not recognize it as a value.

In fact I'm writing "... & T..." and it picks it up as "& (Time)" and inserts the time!

How do I fix this, if possible?
 

Excel Facts

Control Word Wrap
Press Alt+Enter to move to a new row in a cell. Lets you control where the words wrap.
BTW, a search for "&" in Help would have directed you to the "Create custom headers and footers" topic which includes the tip...

"To include a single ampersand (&) within the text of a header or footer, use two ampersands. For example, to include "Subcontractors & Services" in a header, type Subcontractors && Services."
