![]() The AutoFill feature of Excel is a great timesaver when you need to fill in a series of cells based on the content in other cells. It is also a feature that you can turn off, if you prefer. (For instance, the AutoFill handle visible at the bottom-right corner of a selection may be distracting to you, and you want to turn it off.)

In Excel 2010 and Excel 2013 display the File tab of the ribbon and then click Options.) • Click the Advanced option at the left of the dialog box. (See Figure 1.)
