MS Office Forum / Word / Long Documents / January 2004Unwanted border in footnotes
I am reformatting a document using a template containing the styles I need in Word 97. The document has a lot of footnotes. As I am applying the new styles to the footnotes, everything is fine until all of a sudden halfway through the long document, a left border starts to appear on footnotes re-styled from then on. I checked the formatting for borders and there are not borders. The same template does not create that border when used with other documents and did not do so in this document until a point halfway through this one. So there must be a weird code inserted somewhere causing this halfway through the document. Note: this document was originally a WordPerfect for DOS 5.1 document, imported into Word 97 and saved as a Word 97 doc. This may well be the cause, but how do I correct it. Any ideas? Thanks.

When I tried to delete some text in that document, instead of deleting it it marked it with a line through it in red. So I figured it must be set to "Track changes". How do I turn off change tracking?

Thanks. I used the shortcut. The icon is not visible on my setup. I must have accidentally turned it on.
