Default How to hide Mark Entries

It's possible to have Hidden text displayed while the other nonprinting
characters are not. Go to Office button Word Options Display and uncheck
the "Hidden text" option. The ¶ button only toggles the "Show all formatting
marks" option, but any others that are independently checked won't change.

their cabalistic symbols.

Hello,
How can I hide the Mark Entries I created to build the Index of my
Word 2007 document ?
Thanks in advance


They're formatted as Hidden text. When you create an index entry,
Word helpfully displays all nonprinting text
(http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...PrintChars.htm) so you
can see the entry.

If the ¶ button on the toolbar or ribbon looks "pressed in", click
it to turn off the nonprinting characters, and the index entries
will be hidden from view. If you want to see the entries again,
maybe to edit them, click that button again; it's an on/off toggle.
