How do I get rid of brackets appearing for no reason in document
For no apparent reason brackets [ ] are appearing in my word document. When
I send to someone else, they don't appear. When that person edits or sends back to me, the brackets are there again. I've checked for formatting or tracking, but can find no apparent reason for this. |

How do I get rid of brackets appearing for no reason in document
Nope, wrong brackets.
The ones that appear like [ ] are bookmarks. Open Tools Options View and uncheck the Bookmarks item. (The bookmarks will still be there, just not shown.) Besides the Insert Bookmark dialog, you can get bookmarks in your document by inserting an automatic Table of Contents, or by copying/pasting text containing bookmarks from another document, or from an AutoText entry that contains them.... -- 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.
