2003: normal view, remove underscore by insertion point
When opening a new document in Word 2003, Normal view shows a long black
underscore following the blinking insertion point. How do I remove it and simply show the insertion point (like print layout view)? Thanks. |

Unfortunately, I'm blocked out of that site at work.
Just to clairfy, the Underscore is non-printing and doesn't appear in the Print Layout (or any other) view. It wouldn't bother me, but it's bugging my boss.

I'm blocked out of that site at work. Just to clarify, it's not a corruption
of the normal.dot. The underscore by the insertion point only appears in Normal view and not any of the other views. It's bugging my boss and he was asking about it. |

You can't get rid of it. It is the end of document marker, and it only and
always shows in Normal View. Just ignore it. On 8/30/05 7:56 AM, "missdona" wrote: Unfortunately, I'm blocked out of that site at work.
