Thus if she had worked through my reply in order, her problem would be
solved. The first thing I said was Alt-F9.
It was useful additional information that she could also toggle her
codes one at a time, probably a more useful tool than showing them all
(if there happen to be a lot on a page, it gets confusing.)

The problem affected *all* the OP's files. That is enough to show:
1. she probably accidentally typed Alt-F9
2. no amount of Shift-F9 would address the underlying issue.

While it's _possible_ that "show fields instead of results" somehow
got turned on, nothing in Cynthia's posting suggests how that could
have happened. It' seems more likely that she could have accidentally
typed one of the keyboard shortcuts for showing field codes.

Hi Suzanne,
Typo. The fundamental problem with what Peter is saying re Shift-F9 is that next time the document is opened, it'll default to the
code view and the OP will be back towhere he/she started.

And you referred to "pressing F9," which was not anywhere in Peter's response.
If all the field codes are showing, it is highly unlikely that selecting either one or all fields then pressing F9 will change
that -

You said "Alt-F9; or select any individual field(s) (or all of them: Ctrl-A) and Shift-F9".
Everything after the 'Alt-F9' is misleading and probably irrelevant.

Isn't that what I said to do?

that - only Alt-F9 or Word Options|Advanced and unchecking the 'show field codes instead of their values' option (under 'Show
document content') is likely to do so.

I e-mailed a word document as an attachment to a supervisor. She made a few
changes to it and e-mailed it back to me. When I clicked to open it, a box
popped up asking me if I wanted to merge with ??? (sorry, I didn't write it
down because I didn't know it would create a problem). I clicked yes. Since
then I can't view graphics in ANY of my Word 2007 files. Instead of a
graphic I get:
{INCLUDEPICTURE " \*MERGE FORMAT}
When I print the document, the graphic appears on the printout. But it
doesn't appear on my screen when I have the file open. This is quite a
problem, as I've "lost" all my graphics. I'm writing a training manual and
need the issue correct asap. What do I do to correct the problem?---
