I somehow put a text box on the left side of my screen. It has toolbars that
can move it up & down or left & right just like the normal screen that I now
have on the right side of the screen. When there is text in the right side,
it is shown on the left side also.
 
Sounds like you're using "Compare Side by Side" from the Window menu? Or
you've tiled two windows vertically?

That might be it. I'm really not sure. I just want to turn it off. It's
driving me crazy!lol
 
Well, there should be Close buttons on both windows. And there's a floating
toolbar with a Close Side by Side button if that's the issue.

There was no X but I right clicked on the left box and clicked on the icon at
the top. ((It had the magnifying glass on it.)) That closed the box on the
left. Thanks for the help Suzanne!!
 
That is the Document Map; I actually considered that possibility but didn't
see how it could be described as mirroring the text in your document. If it
is a copy of your document, then you're in big trouble, as that would
suggest that everything in your document is a heading.
