From: Suzanne S. Barnhill on 18 Jan 2010 10:43 The article in question has been updated for Word 2007, but I think what you are asking for is "Text boundaries," which displays the margins and other text boundaries as a dotted line. That is found at Office Button | Word Options | Advanced: Show document content: Show text boundaries. -- Suzanne S.

From: OldManEd on 18 Jan 2010 10:58 Thank You!! That worked. That option is misplaced. Should be under 'Display' not 'Advanced.' OldEd "Suzanne S.

There are many options under Advanced that should be under Display; apparently the designers didn't want to "clutter" Display with options they thought few users would use. -- Suzanne S.
