HELP! Light Gray ][ 's have appeared!
I'm using Word 2k2 and this noon, I saved the document I was working on and
when I opened it up again, I've have these funky light gray ][ all over the document. What are they, and how do I get rid of them? TIA Mark |

The marks probably indicate bookmarks. You can delete them from
the Insert-Bookmark menu. MChrist wrote: I'm using Word 2k2 and this noon, I saved the document I was working on and when I opened it up again, I've have these funky light gray ][ all over the document. What are they, and how do I get rid of them? TIA Mark |

You can leave them in the document but make them invisible -- lots
less work! In Tools Options View, uncheck "Bookmarks" and click OK. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org On Wed, 12 Oct 2005 12:23:59 -0700, garfield-n-odie wrote: The marks probably indicate bookmarks.

Or kill them all with a simple macro:
Sub DeleteBookMarks() Dim oBkMark As Bookmark For Each oBkMark In ActiveDocument.Bookmarks oBkMark.Delete Next End Sub -- Greg Maxey/Word MVP See: http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/word_tips.htm For some helpful tips using Word.
