Default Formatting symbols suddenly appear


If you've been using Word "for years" and aren't familiar with non-printing
characters it's about time you learned :-)

Can anyone help please? This os the first time I have posted a msg
here.

I am using Word 2000 and have done so without problems for years.
However, on opening up all my documents today, there are paragraph
ending symbolsatn every paragraph ending or a space, which I have
never seen before. Furthermore, between each word a dot has appeared
(the height of the top dot in a colon). I have no idea why this has
happened or how to rurn them off.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
D.
