How do I hide the formatting symbols?
Control+8 or click the ¶ button on the Standard toolbar (or Home tab of the
Ribbon if using 2007). HTH |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac On 6/18/09 5:33 AM, in article , "smiddybrae" wrote: "Doug" wrote: I suddenly have all of these symbols everywhere in my document. I'm assuming that they're formatting symbols. How do I hide them? They're too distracting. |

That would be CTRL+* (CTRL+SHIFT+8)

How do I hide the formatting symbols?
True, but I don't think the ShowAll button (the Pilcrow or shortcut) is the
problem here. The user says he has managed to rid the paragraph symbols but now still sees the spaces (dots) between characters. Logically, it cannot be the ShowAll button so must be the individual 'Spaces' setting under Word Options | Display tab. Terry Farrell "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...

Yeah, I've finally gotten to the point where my fingers work faster than my
mind does... the Shift key isn't a part of the Mac keystroke & I hit Send before I realized the omission %-} Thanks for the catch! Regards |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac On 6/19/09 1:03 AM, in article , "Graham Mayor" wrote: That would be CTRL+* (CTRL+SHIFT+8) |
