Default How do I turn off viewing formatting chars when composing a docume

Had no prob. with prev. versions of Word, but 2007 is very confusing. I
cannot even compose a new doc without seeing formatting characters. For
example I get dots between each word instead of space. Also is there a way to
get rid of the "ribbon" and just have regular menus? I thought there was a
way. I may just need to re-install Word 2000 (the only other version I have
here at home).
