How do you hide "{PAGE}" from displaying?
I must have keyed some combination of function keys or something. Whenever I
bring up a MS Word document it displays formating instructions in { }. How do I hid these instructions in { } like {PAGE}? Any help is appreciated. |

How do you hide "{PAGE}" from displaying?
Press Alt+F9, which switches from field results to field codes and
vice versa. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

How do you hide "{PAGE}" from displaying?
I have the same problem! I have created an Index and automark the entries. I
cannot make the codes disappear. I have tried Alt+F9 many times, but there are no difference to be seen when having used Alt+F9. Any suggestions? -- Roxanne "Jay Freedman" wrote: Press Alt+F9, which switches from field results to field codes and vice versa. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

Some fields are formatted as hidden text; this is true for the XE (index
entry) fields. So you will have to disable the display of hidden text. If you want specific instructions, tell us your version of Word. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Roxanne" wrote in message ... I have the same problem!

How do you hide "{PAGE}" from displaying?
To show/hide all nonprinting marks, you can press Ctrl+Shift+8 (or click the
¶ button in the Paragraph groupd of the Home tab). That should do the trick. However, if hidden text has been explicitly chosen in the Word Options dialog box, you will have to turn it off the Click the Office button (the "pizza" button on the top left of the Word window), and then click Word Options. In the Display category, click to clear the "Hidden text" option, and then click OK. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Roxanne" wrote in message ...

How do you hide "{PAGE}" from displaying?
Thank you!
I have turned of the ¶ in the document (my short cut is Ctrl+0), but that didn't help. So I looked in the 'Display' section and saw that there was a mark next to Hidden text. I have now removed that. Thank you. -- Roxanne "Stefan Blom" wrote: To show/hide all nonprinting marks, you can press Ctrl+Shift+8 (or click the ¶ button in the Paragraph groupd of the Home tab). That should do the trick.
