MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / May 2008How do I hide formatting and paragraph marks in my email messages
Does anybody know how to hide the paragraph and other formatting symbols on the body's of my email messages. I don't know what I did, they just popped up one day. I tried to find the answer in the help function but it tells me to look for the paragraph (hide/show) symbol on the standard toolbar or in the standard toolbar options and when I look I do not have an option for that even in the customize section. Please help, I can't stand typing emails with all of that extra junk showing!!! Thanks.

Not an Outlook issue. This is a Word issue. Ask in a Word newsgroup. This is a word issue even if it is affecting my emails? > > Does anybody know how to hide the paragraph and other formatting symbols > > on [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > Not an Outlook issue.

You are in Word when composing the *document* that you may or may not then send back to Outlook. You may have called Word from Outlook to compose your e-mail using Word's template. You may have simply opened Word, composed your document, and then used the File -> Send To menu to send the document to Outlook. But you still in *Word* when you were composing the document. The behaviors you note are those of Word, not Outlook. Outlook doesn't control what you do inside of Word or how you CONFIGURE Word. Actually I was able to fix it in Outlook, so this was the correct forum to be asking the question in, thanks. > > This is a word issue even if it is affecting my emails? > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > The behaviors you note are those of Word, not Outlook.

Lindsey. I am using the Word editor. I can't find the button at all. It is not on my standard tool bar and when I click on toolbar options, add or remove buttons, it is nowhere to be found. > Are you useing Word editor, when you write emails?

Lindsey. Lindsey, Please include your solution with your post next time so you can help others out who are having the same problem. Here is the solution by the way: Open up a new e-mail message> Select "Tools" from the top menu > Select "Options" from the drop down box > Select the "View" tab > Under the "Formatting marks" section uncheck all of the boxes. This will remove all of the formatting marks from your message. Jeff > I figured it out. Thank you all for your help! > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > > even in the customize section.

I get calls from people who say they hit a series of keystrokes and it appears so is there shortcut keys to make it disappear?
