Sounds as if you have turned on formatting marks (nonprinting characters) -
the "full stop" indicates a space.
Click the ΒΆ icon on the Standard toolbar to turn formatting marks off. If
this does not help, select Tools Options View tab and make sure that both
"Spaces" and "All" are deselected in the Formatting marks group. Click OK.
