HOW DO I FIX IT???

Guest

Everytime I open Microsoft Word (2003) there is a little Paragraph symbol
(looks like a backwards P with two lines) and I want to get rid of that. HOW?
I have searched all through the program and I DON'T know what to do??? I
can't type documents with this thing... it even appears after I skip lines by
hitting enter and everything! I hate it! How do I set EVERYTHING back to
original settings? I need to fix this and soon (school is about to start).

Thanks a ton!

Joseph.

You need to click the ¶ on the standard toolbar. You may have to expand the
chevron on the right.
