Default How do I hide the formatting symbols?

Greg, Thanks a million. I inadvertantly turned them on by fat-fingering
something and they were killing me. I couldn't figure out what I had done.
They're gone now and I'm sane. - Dave

I suddenly have all of these symbols everywhere in my

document. I'm assuming
that they're formatting symbols. How do I hide them?

They're too distracting.
