W-2 information entered is not being accepted by turbotax

I have entered the information from my W-2, Box C, exactly as it appears on my W-2 and the program will not accept it.  I have deleted it and entered it again twice.  Each time it will not accept the correct name.  It adds amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp after the "&" in the name.

The IRS will only need to verify that that the EIN is correct.  They will not care that the name has an 'and' instead of an '&'.

Remove the '&' and enter 'and'

I changed the "&" and it is now correct.  Thank you so much!
