microsoft 2003 word - Paragraph & punctuation information

A

armymom

When I open any of my saved word documents or even a new one from my desktop
I have Paragraph & punctuation information like this: ¶
in all my documents. They are not in the print review view and donot print
but are just there on the regular document. I would like to know how to
remove these. I have 2003 version of microsoft word.

Click the toolbar button that has the same ¶ symbol on it. :) Turn it off,
turn it on, turn it off... Hey, stop! The keyboard shortcut Alt+* (that is,
Alt+Shift+8 on most keyboards) does the same. Both of them change the "All"
option in the Tools > Options > View dialog. If any of the other options in
that group are checked, you'll generally want to turn them off.

Also read http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/NonPrintChars.htm to find
out why you may want to see those characters, some or all of the time.
