when i am typing on word there is a dot between every word. for example....
today.i.am.going.into.town
does anybody know how to change that?? thanks
 
These are just formatting characters that are normally hidden
Uncheck all the items in tools > options > view > formatting marks and you
can then toggle the dsiplay of formatting marks as required by clicking the
¶ button (or CTRL+*)

thanks graham, i tried the CTRL+* but the dots are still appearing when i hit
space bar, and on my word i have no tools option? i am using the word
2007..... any ideas? i need to write a document and email it but it looks
bad with all the dots....
thanks again for your help
 
Did you first make the changes to Word options as instructed?
Did you hold the shift key whilst pressing CTRL+*
* is Shift 8!
