I'm using Word 2000. I've got an existing file that has headers, footers,
hyper links and a TOC. They used to work/display just fine. Now my autotext
in H/F appear as brackets - for insttance I have even/odd page header with
Page Number. Instead of displaying the actuall page number it displays {Page}
My hyper links display as {Hyperlink mailto:emailaddress...} My TOC displays
as {TOC h/z/t...}. Interestingly when I tried to copy the TOC above into this
post it pasted the actual content of the TOC as it should appear in the Doc.
I'm so confused?

Thanks
John

Press Alt+F9 to switch from field codes to field results. The keystroke is
an on/off toggle. (This is a shortcut for going to Tools Options View
and checking/unchecking the Field Codes box.)

Thanks Jay,
That was way too easy. Last week I had posted a question about mail merging
problems and one of the steps to try and resove that issue was to do the
Alt-F9 thing. I guess it sticks? I didn't realize that.

Thanks again

John
