MS Office Forum / Word / Document Management / May 2008How do I shut off 'reveal codes' in Word?
I must have turned on the 'reveal codes' option in Word and now I don't know how to shut it off. Can anyone help me If you see field codes such as {EMBED}, {HYPERLINK}, etc., then press Alt+F9 to turn off display of field codes. If you see non-printing characters such as paragraph marks, dots between words, etc., then see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/NonPrintChars.htm . > I must have turned on the 'reveal codes' option in Word and now I don't know > how to shut it off. Can anyone help me If you're referring to non-printing characters, click on the paragraph symbol on your toolbar and it will turn them off or go to Tools | Options | View | Formatting marks and deselect them. > I must have turned on the 'reveal codes' option in Word and now I don't know > how to shut it off. Can anyone help me >I must have turned on the 'reveal codes' option in Word and now I don't >know > how to shut it off. Can anyone help me There is no such thing as "Reveal Codes" in Word. There is a Task Pane option to reveal formatting. Or perhaps, as stated in another reply, that you mean Show/Hide, represented by the Pilcrow on the Standard Tool Bar. This only displays non-printing characters used for some formatting tasks. Gordo "Reveal Codes" is in WordPerfect, and is something Word should have. With it, it is easy to control formatting and saves a huge amount of time and effort.
