WHAT is this?
Hi, All!
Was editing my home phone list this morning and all of a sudden the whole thing is full of what looks like little circles with a big X behind them. The net effect is what looks like a little sunburst. Anybody know how I got those to show up and what they are and how to get rid of them? I can send a picture on request or post it online if nobody knows what I'm talking about ... Thanks! Mountaingirl53 |

In your toolbar is a button with ¶ on it. Click on it.
(It turns on and off your nonprinting characters. I can't work without them - others can't work with them.) -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Mountaingirl53" wrote in message ... Hi, All!

THANK YOU!!!
Once you get used to them, you find that they are fantastic. You can easily
tell why a sentence breaks at a weird point in a document, why it prints a blank second page, and many other weird layout issues. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Mountaingirl53" wrote in message ...
