through 4 clicks to get to it (Office Button Word Options Advanced Show Document Content. Thanks. |

Show Text Boundaries
You can add any Word command to the Quick Access Toolbar, by default located
at the left edge of the topmost title bar. Click on the down arrow at the right end of the toolbar, and navigate through the menu structure in the pop-up windows to the command you want. The QAT icons are cryptic and hard to recognize, but you get tooltips when you hover the mouse cursor over them. -- TedMi |

Thanks, but I already tried this and found no related command. I thought
someone might have another idea. "tedmi" wrote: You can add any Word command to the Quick Access Toolbar, by default located at the left edge of the topmost title bar.

Show Text Boundaries
Look in All Commands; the command you want is ViewTogglePageBoundaries.

Notice is says "PageBounndaries" not text boundaries. I tried it and it just
eliminates the extra white space. Thanks anyway! "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Look in All Commands; the command you want is ViewTogglePageBoundaries. -- Suzanne S.

Hmm. I wonder why they called it "page boundaries" instead of "white space."
sigh Okay, well you could at least use ToolsOptionsView to open the Options dialog to the View tab (that would be in Word 2003; I don't know what the Word 2007 equivalent would be). -- Suzanne S.

Show Text Boundaries
To show/hide text boundaries, use the following macro:
Sub ShowHideTextBoundaries() On Error Resume Next ActiveWindow.View.ShowTextBoundaries = _ Not ActiveWindow.View.ShowTextBoundaries End Sub Add it to the normal.dotm template (or to an add-in); you can then add a button for it to the Quick Access Toolbar or attach a keyboard shortcut.
