How to see tab marks

[bxb7668]

I have a customer using Publisher 2002. She would like to be able to
see the hidden tab and paragraph marks while she is editing. This is
something that is easy to do in Word. Is it possible in Publisher
and, if so, how?

The "Special Characters" button, next to the Zoom drop-down?

(Make sure you shown Standard and Formatting toolbars on two rows, otherwise
buttons are almost invariably hidden)

Hmm. She tried that and could see paragraph marks but not tabs. I'll
take a look-see tonight when I'm on a box that has Publisher
installed.

Yes, tabs marks *should* be present when they tab (they do on my system)

I don't try explaining. The tab marks have returned. She swears that
they didn't show up. But their back. Thank you all for your
suggestions.
