Thanks to you and the usual suspects I am now happily back to normal. Funny how one's brain seizes up when something untoward happens to one's blog.<br /><br />Grannie Annie: Thank you. That's another useful tip I shall store:)<br /><br />Eryl: It's comforting to know I'm not the only computer air-head - although I don't think with your fierce intelligence you are really.Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01529798893653033970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-75179220927076116932010-06-29T13:53:15.370+01:002010-06-29T13:53:15.370+01:00I have absolutely no idea, but I do like your pict...I have absolutely no idea, but I do like your picture.Erylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06008344023000459577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-40274060413143771772010-06-29T12:11:48.921+01:002010-06-29T12:11:48.921+01:00My cure for such ills is to go to system restore a...My cure for such ills is to go to system restore and set the restart time at a date before the unwanted document appeared.

If not, click back on "Print Layout"Kim Ayreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02656677501116622953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-88931446634543501222010-06-29T06:51:06.497+01:002010-06-29T06:51:06.497+01:00I believe the first step is usually to not refer t...I believe the first step is usually to not refer to it as your own stupidity but instead blame Microsoft! :)Gadjo Dilohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08998278830936531990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-17831979873647601732010-06-28T23:59:50.657+01:002010-06-28T23:59:50.657+01:00Kim and Kevin: I've just clicked the enlarge ...Kim and Kevin: I've just clicked the enlarge at top right hand corner and that seems to have worked on a couple of docs.

This is the "display formatting symbols" button. If you click on it the blot will disappear.<br /><br />It toggles on and off. The blot's not doing anything, it's just showing you that you're at the end of a paragraph. You'll also see dots for spaces and odd things like that. Useful for checking on formatting errors but as confusing as hell otherwise.<br /><br />HTHKevin Musgrovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14472110857057175327noreply@blogger.com
