toggle field codes
Several things to check.
Check in Tools, Options, View, Field Codes is not checked. Also to toggle all in one go, Ctrl+A (to select whole document) F9. The codes could be locked, then use Ctrl+Shft+F11 to unlock. Hope this helps DeanH "Ali" wrote: when I open my word files, some strange codes appear in my references (entered by EndNote), page numbers, some pictures and links.

toggle field codes
Word, particularly Word 2003, has a bad habit of changing the personalised
settings stored in the data key in the registry. Some have suggested that this is caused by the interaction of certain add-ins, but I remain unconvinced. You could reset the key and re-apply your preferences, but the chances are that it will lose them again, so it is probably simpler just to apply the settings that change with auto macros. If you add the line ActiveWindow.View.ShowFieldCodes = False to both an autoopen and an autonew macro in normal.dot (normal.dotm for Word 2007) all documents will open with the field code display switched off.
