Default Turn on paragraph marks?

Hi:

I am using word 2003 and XP.

I have had paragraph marks and formatting characters turned on (Tools,
Options, formatting marks checked) since I initially set up word years ago.

Recently, when I open documents, the formatting marks no longer appear. When
I go to Tools, Options ... , the formatting marks are no longer checked off.
(And, when I check them off .. the marks appear in the document I am
currently working on, but Word reverts to no formatting marks the next time I
open it.)

Any suggestions on how I can get the formatting marks to stay?

Since settings aren't retained between sessions, I'd suspect a damaged Data
key in the registry. See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/MissingMenusEtc.htm.
