What does "[something]" mean?
Hi,
Sometimes when I am editing a document, I will notice that MS Word (2003) automatically places a grey C channel "[" some text "]". It will often surround a sentence or something. It doesn't print and it doesn't show up in print preview. This grey "[" is slightly larger than it I tried to manually type that in. What does these marks "[" "]" mean? And how do I get rid of them? Thank you. HS |

They designate the start and end of a bookmark. They can be turned off
under the View tab that you access by selecting Options from the Tools menu. -- Please respond to the Newsgroup for the benefit of others who may be interested.

That's interesting as I didn't purposefully create any bookmarks. I started this document by copying and pasting from the Internet. I noticed in the document I have OLE_LINK1 and OLE_LINK2 as bookmarks. Do you have any idea what those are? I suspect I got them when I did my copy and paste. Thank you for your help. HS |
