Remove formatting symbols??

[Mike J.]

Some where along the line a mis-click has caused formatting symbols to be
revealed in my office docs. I cannot find the option to remove these, and
apparently I'm not capable of asking "help" the right question. Any guidance,
much appreciated.

Thank you.

Try Ctrl+* or click on the Pilcrow ¶ on the toolbar.

Show or hide formatting marks
Show All
Hide All
Click Show/Hide on the Standard toolbar (toolbar: A bar with buttons
and options that you use to carry out commands. To display a toolbar,
press ALT and then SHIFT+F10.).
Tip

You can also show or hide formatting marks by clicking Options on the
Tools menu and then clicking the View tab. Under Formatting marks,
select or clear the check boxes.
