How can I turn off the document defaulting to showing markup?
Exit Word. Search for normal.dot (or normal.dotm if you are using Word 2007)
in Windows and rename the file when you find it. The factory defaults will be restored as you start Word again. Note that in order to find normal.dot (normal.dotm) you will have to search hidden files and folders. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Mikat" wrote in message ...

Maybe you have some tracked changes or comments accidentally saved in your Normal.dot template (Normal.dotm for Word 2007). See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...ocNotBlank.htm. If you're talking about opening existing documents, there is a setting in Tools Options Security in Word 2003, "Make hidden markup visible when opening or saving" (in Word 2007, the same setting is in Office button Word Options Trust Center Trust Center Settings Privacy Options). That setting should be left checked if you ever send Word documents to other users, because it can help to prevent embarrassing or legally damaging information from leaving your computer. -- 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. |
