Hey peeps,

On word, when I type these little black flag like things come up and also inbetween each of the words I type a dot appears.

How do I get rid of these annoying things??

Thanks

You have this option selected, which is on the toolbar and looks like a black flag as they appear on the text. Just un-select it and it should hopefully be gone.

Mc_Gansta is right. There is a button that looks like this:

Un-highlight it and your problems should go away! By the way, it is a visual paragraph aid to see where you paragraphs and spaces are 😉

Answered

The button is the non printable symbols button, it shows up the symbols like spaces and carrage returns (when you hit the enter key).

Do as above and all will be well.

I really hate MS Word. It is so stubborn, and the "Help" is worthless. If you don't already know what you need to find, you'll never find it in Help.

I do a lot of writing at work, and if I have a choice I'll write in WordPerfect, then export it as a Word file to distribute to others. That's much easier than using Word.

If I have to edit a document in Word, I do the best I can then send it to a tech editor to straighten out all the formatting.

I get on pretty well with word - I have my gripes with it but mostly it isn't so bad.

Once you figure out the mystical language of the MS help file - that can actually be useful too 😀

Still need help?
