I want to see ALL formating in my Word document---italics, bold, underline,
etc. Not just tabs, returns, etc. I want to see it as in Word Perfect's
"Reveal Codes"

As explained in http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/RevealCodes.htm, Word
doesn't use formatting start/stop tags the way WordPerfect does, so there
really isn't anything to show.

If you're really determined to get this, there is a third-party utility that
fakes the tags: http://www.levitjames.com/crosseyes/CrossEyes.html. If you
think it's worth the extra money, go for it.
