Have I messed up Word?

[Booksrme2]

The arrows on the right margin that move material up and/or down have
completely disappeared. Nothing I have thought to do brings them back. I
cannot move material. Help! (Thanks)

Huh? Arrows on the right margin? I don't have any arrows. Man, my copy of
Word must be REALLY messed up.

Can you describe these arrows a bit? Are they blue, maybe?

What happens if you go to View/Outline? Do the arrows come back?

If not, then maybe try View/Outline and then View/Toolbars and choose
Outlining.

I would suggest that he has lost the scroll bars..

After Word is open, try opening Tools/Options, and make sure that on the
View Tab there is a check mark in the Vertical Scroll Bar box. Hope this
helps.

Very well could be. I guess I never thought of the scroll bars as "arrows,"
but I can see how they could be described that way.
