How do I take off symbol begining each line
I have a symbol that looks like a backwards P at the begining of each line.
I don't know how it got there, so naturally I can figure out how to get it off. |

I suspect it's at the end but if you don't know what it is, it could be
assumed to be at the beginning. Or it could be a typo? -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "grammatim" wrote in message ...

How do I take off symbol begining each line
I assumed that it appears as the only thing on a new line, and then the OP types
there. Given the general obliviousness of many posters here, I'm rarely surprised by what might be termed "your other left".

I'm starting to detect sarcasm, irony, and cynicism in this thread. Keep up
