You have inadvertently turned on Track Changes. Turn it off, accept the
changes, and you'll be right. See http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/trac...ngesWorks.html -- Suzanne S.

It's called Tracking mode... you probably pressed Ctrl+Shift+E. Press it
again to toggle tracking off. If you're using Word 2007, look in the Review tab. If you're using Word 2003 or earlier, look at the Reviewing toolbar. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Jason" wrote in message ...

Get rid of what thing? Tracking mode? It's a Word feature. You can't really
get rid of it. You can prevent Ctrl+Shift+E from toggling it by reassigning Ctrl+Shift+E. Look at the status bar at the bottom of the Word window. It will show whether tracking it turned on. To remove it from that document, click/double-click (depends on Word version) to turn tracking off. Then accept all changes, and tracking is now gone from that document. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Jason" wrote in message ...

Unless you are actually using the modem (quite rare these days g), I
suggest that you disable it in the Device Manager. If it still continues to pick up interference, then physically remove it - if possible. Terry Farrell "Jason" wrote in message ...
