Little black squares (invisible)

[Poliwog]

Hello!

When I click 'Show Invisibles' (the paragraph symbol) in Word (XP,
2003 and 2007), I sometimes see little black squares. Most of the
symbols I know--tab spaces, line breaks, paragraph marks... But the
black squares stump me.

Thanks,
Les

These usually indicate another Style than "Normal." Put the cursor on
the line with the square, and check what style appears in the Style
box on the toolbar. It will probably be "Title" or something of the
sort. Changing the style back to "Normal" will get the black square to
go away.
