Default Autotext characters showing as symbols


Hi Cindy and Elannia

Thanks very much for your posts. Sorry it's taken me so long to get
back to you.

Elannia - I've tried the language settings and this makes no
difference.

Cindy - please see attached normal.dot template.

Thanks very much!

Hi

Every time I add auto text the characters always come up as the
following symbols
⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪
- no matter what the auto text is that I select!

I'm using Word 2003. It appears to have happened since someone at work
fiddled with normal.dot. Could it be related?

Thanks )

Hi Doesjka,

If you don't use the REPLY button, we have no idea what the
original question was. This means your message is
completely out of context, and doesn't get you any further.

Cindy - please see attached normal.dot template.

As Suzanne said, attachments aren't allowed here. And even
if they were, I wouldn't open a template or document from
an unknown source.
