When I deselect the Hidden Text check box (Tools/Options/View) in my Word
files (to not display hidden text), save the document, close, and re-open the
document, the check box is once again selected. I have tried deleting my
normal.dot, but this did not fix the problem. I have also tried detaching
the old template the file was associated to. I have also made sure that the
Print Hidden Text check box is not selected.

Note that not all of my files open with the Hidden Text check box selected.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
