Adding new txt , characters are blue

[wrdjb51]

On a new Windows 8 machine, I am having problems making changes and
adding txt to a existing document apparently related to formatting. Th
primary problem is if I attempt to add txt , or modify txt , the colo
of these characters is blue. I cannot change the color back to blac
using the typical methods in Word

Sounds like Track Changes is turned on (though usually additions are
marked with red underline).

Among the many ways to turn it off is to press Ctrl-Shift-E.
