My bullets are suddenly followed by an arrow. Can't undo..
on the doument I must have hit something. My Word doc dot bullet points show
up with short arrows after them every time, and I can't undo it even under Format - Bullets and Numbers. The short arrows even show up in white space. How do I just get back to just basic dot bullets that I can install with a * space then a return at the end of the paragraph or line, like I have always been able to? I can't understand the help directions, or find the right link. |

You've switched on the display of non-printing characters (which are
actually very useful). The 'arrows' are tabs made visible. Click the pilcrow button (the backwards P) to toggle the setting or go to Tools Options View.

As Jezebel points out, this can be useful (some of us couldn't operate
without NPC); see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/NonPrintChars.htm -- Suzanne S.
