space bar inserts period, how to fix?

Is it a period, or is it Word's symbol for a space? Go into Tools/Options
and see if the box is checked that shows either "all" formatting marks, or
maybe just the "space" formatting mark, which is like a period.

That's not a period, it's a non-printing character that represents a
space.
