    Can I disable the suggestion box that pops up when I'm typing a formula?

    I recently upgraded from an older version of Excel to Office 365. I use Excel a lot and every time I start to enter a formula (for example =sum) I get a pop up that suggests a whole bunch of options. I would just prefer to shut this option off as I just find it distracting instead of helpful. Since I'm not even sure what they call this little suggestion box or whatever it is, I can't figure out how to search Excel help to get rid of it. Can anyone please help me? Attached is a screen shot of what I am talking about. Thank you in advance to anyone who can help me disable this!
