I am growing very frustrated. I am reasonably computer savvy, but I can
not figure out how hide the paragraph mark. I have used the hide/show
button, it does nothing except hide or reveal the OTHER formatting
marks such as the spaces, tabs, etc. The paragraph marks remain.
Somehow, this has become a default and it's doing it on all my pages.

I have tried searching for help, but everything seems to show only the
"use the hide button".

I am using Microsoft 2002, and this is a recent thing that has happened
within the past 3 weeks.

Thank you for any advice you can give.

Tools Options View (tab)

I always leave my paragraph marks showing. The Show/Hide determines which of
the non-printing marks that are _not_ checked are shown.
