Default Turn off index "idenifiers?"

As always, I apologize if this is in the wrong forum. I have a Word 2007 document that was written many months ago that needs to be reviewed and edited before I give it to the head boss. I used the index feature to create an index and the problem is that I forget how to display the screen so that the reader doesn't see the index data as in the following:

Once a payment is received from the insurance {XE "insurance"} carrier, the insurance secretary {XE "insurance secretary"} enters the payment....

Can someone help this old man remember how to turn off the {XE "...."} stuff?

Sorry, I found it. In Word 2007 click the Office Icon, Select Word Options, Select the Display Opton, and Uncheck the Hidden Text option.

Thank you just the same.

Note, however, that this setting is not saved in the document. So, if your
boss has hidden text set to display, then s/he will see the {XE }
entries. When I want to hide the ugly underbelly of Word documents, I
usually try to give the recipient a .pdf file.
