paragraphs

[Guest]

I don't know what I did but all of a sudden all my word documents have
backward "P's" all over them. I think it has to do with a paragraph setting I
must have changed. The problem occurred when I was editing a document that
contained an e-mail I cut and pasted.

DW:

You somehow toggled your non-printing formatting marks on in the display. If
you see a toolbar button with a backwards P on it, pop that out. Otherwise,
click Tools > Options > View and clear whichever check boxes you like.

PS: I encourage you to train yourself to work with these marks showing, as
you'll be able to create more professional, robust documents with them, once
you know what the marks are showing you and respond accordingly. E.G. use
tabs rather than space characters, use Space Above rather than empty
paragraphs.
