Word 2007: hiding index codes
I have noticed that whenever I insert an Index marker, I see the code
{ XW "the word" } displayed spelled out in full whenever I select showing the special characters, like the paragraph marks and the tabs. This can throw me off when I am trying to format spaces between lines of text and tables and pictures and the ends of pages by manipulating the size in points of paragraph marks. Is there any way I can selectively ask it not to show these codes when I otherwise select displaying the special characters? -Butterfly Bill |

Word 2007: hiding index codes
The Show/Hide ¶ button toggles between displaying ALL nonprinting characters
and displaying just those you have selected. So, in order to see the selected NPC without Hidden text, you must check them in Office Button | Display. While you have this setup enabled, you won't be able to hide all the NPC by clicking on the button, just toggle between seeing them all and seeing all but Hidden text. -- Suzanne S.

Now I have to make some macros to toggle on and off just the paragraph marks and the space dots while keeping the rest hidden. (No, I don't need help on that.) -BB |
