Pilcrow Sign
Please help me! I imported a document and now every time I use Word a pilcrow
sign keeps showing at the end of each line (even when I don't use text) and an arrow appears if I use tab. These symbols are showing up in every new and old opened document and it's really annoying! How do I get rid of these unwanted symbols once and for all??? |

Ya know, I don't think I've ever been able to convince anyone of the value
of seeing the non-printing characters. The only other person I know who uses them is my husband. We both started out using Word when it was a DOS-based program so we were accustomed to seeing those characters. I've tried explaining the benefits to my friends/co-workers but they just don't care. :-( -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] ~~~~~ How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375 "Pat Garard" apgarard-bigpond:net:au wrote in message ... ... and no thanks to you? ... `[:-{ -- Regards, Pat Garard Melbourne, Australia _______________________ "JoAnn Paules [MVP]" wrote in message ...

Now follow JoAnn's sage advice: switch them on again, learn to use them, and
see how much your formatting improves. (or are you the one of those swine who uses empty paragraphs for spacing?) "elemspedteacher" wrote in message ... I fixed it!

I've yet to see any documents at work where they've used paragraph settings.
We won't even mention styles. If they won't do the former, they can't do the latter.

Hi JoAnn,
It's like crafts(wo)manship - when I was learning to drive a car (in the UK a couple 'a centuries ago) there was a kind of pride in being a good and courteous driver. Nobody seems to give a $hit any more - until they have a problem. Then they seek out the crafts(wo)man they could 'a been themselves. `[:-} -- Regards, Pat Garard Melbourne, Australia _______________________ "JoAnn Paules [MVP]" wrote in message ...

I once (about 40 years ago) had the later A40 Farina - I should have
suspected the worst as the registration letters were DUD. The 998 cc(?) engine failed and I fitted a later 1198CC jobbie.
