document shows formatting?

[mfl]

hi, I was updating a document when one time that I looked
up and see backward q's and dot's between every word and
alot of arrows pointing at tabs or spaces. My laptop has a
touch pad and sometimes my palm has brushed over it and
selected things at random, but I can't figure out how to
shut this off. Any help woould be appreciated.

Hi mfl

See What do all those funny marks, like the dots between the words in my
document, and the square bullets in the left margin, mean?

To turn it off:
Look at the (top) toolbar in Word.
Locate the Zoom Control (it will have something like 97%
or 117% written in it). Immediately to the left is a button
with that 'backward P' in it - Click it!
