{private} code ?
In a long document I have the following code
{private} visible throughout the document (when I click on reveal codes). I have plenty of other codes, but I do not think I created those. Is it safe to delete the {private} codes? Jeff |

Those field codes are usually a symptom of the document having originated in
WordPerfect. Unless you plan to convert back, it's usually safe to just delete them. -- Suzanne S.

They're generally created by converting a WordPerfect document to Word. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

{private} code ?
Thanks Suzanne. You are correct. This document was originally created in
WordPerfect (10 years ago). While I have you, I created an index that formed in 2 columns. Is there an easy way to change it into a 3 column index.? Thanks. Jeff Suzanne S.

The easiest way is to Alt+F9 to display the index, which will by default
look something like { INDEX \c "2" \z "1033" }, and change the "2" to "3." -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org wrote in message ...
