    I’ve been using Word 2000 for several years and all of a sudden (I have no idea what I changed) there seem to be formatting codes displayed all the time. The appearance is similar to the “reveal codes” used in WordPerfect

    There are paragraph symbols and dots representing every space between characters. It’s driving me crazy!

    How can I turn these codes off?

    TIA.

    On the toolbar there is a button that looks like a paragraph mark. Click it to deselect it.

    Its the reveal formatting button.
