Hiding comment reference marks?
At work.. we upgraded to MS Word 2003 from 98. I create a weekly movie
calendar on which I highlight the movie title and then insert "comment" descriptions so when you touch the title text w/ a cursor...the descriptions show up as balloons. In the 2003 version....when I highlight the text and insert a comment... the reference numbers like [d1] , [d2] show up in the text. I want the text to be highlighted so the bubble will appear when the cursor touches that part of the text BUT I need to hide that reference number. If I chose the format options not to "show markups" then the highlighting disappears from the text and you can't access the comments "bubble" function. Any ideas how to get rid of these little numbers but keep the highlighted text? Thx |

Hiding comment reference marks?
Thx but changing chararacter style to comment reference and then
hiding..didn't really do what I was trying to do..It did not make the reference number [D1] disappear..thanks though.

To be able to see that style in the Styles and Formatting task pane, you'll probably have to open the "Show" dropdown at the bottom of the pane and select "Custom", then check the style name in the dialog. Or you can just click the Styles... button at the bottom of that dialog and deal with the old (Word 2000) Styles dialog, which I prefer to the task pain/pane. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
