I know what wavy read and green lines mean, but what does a wavy blue line
mean? I tried searching the Word help and none of the hits explained it.

Tools | Options | Edit: Mark formatting inconsistencies. It's available only
if you have "Keep track of formatting" enabled, in which case you're also
seeing all those pseudo-styles such as Normal + Bold, Normal + 14 pt, etc.

What are "formatting inconsistencies," and where is this switch in
2003?
Hi Rich,One of the oddities of Word 2007 was MS choosing to use blue as the
squiggle color for two different features (a) the new context
spelling and (b) an enhanced version of the Word 2003 introduced feature
to mark formatting 'inconsistencies'In Word 2007 that's under
Office Button=>Word Options=>Advanced=>Editing Options
[ ] Mark Formatting Inconsistencies=============
messageI corrected and stopped the blue wavy/squiggly lines that refer to
contextual
spelling. Problem is they still show up when there is a formatting or
style
difference. How do I get rid of that? It is extremely annoying.One line in my resume has the blue wavy/squiggly lines under the entire
line. When I right click, I get the following options:1. Replace direct formatting with with style List Paragraph
2. Ignore Once
3. Ignore RuleI want to ignore not replace my formatting (which is consistent throughout
my doc). How do I turn this feature off permanently?-

Yves Dhondt said:"Keep track of formatting" and "Mark formatting inconsistencies" can be
found in Word 2007 under "Office button", "Word Options", "Advanced".
