From: FarmFan on 21 Feb 2010 13:08 I just upgraded from Word 2000 to 2003. HOw do I get rid of all the formatting red lines, red text, etc. that appears in my document when I make changes to the document. I also need to remove it so it does not print with the document. Thanks for your help!!
From: marysully on 21 Feb 2010 13:29 Don't know why the text is appearing red, check to make sure the font is set to "automatic." The formatting red lines signal spelling errors, green lines - grammar errors. They never print out. You can turn them off by selecting Tools, Options, Spelling and Grammar, and uncheck the boxes "check spelling/grammar as you type." "FarmFan" wrote: > I just upgraded from Word 2000 to 2003.

From: FarmFan on 21 Feb 2010 13:56 Thanks for your reply - Word 2003 is turning text to red where I have made changes and also shows a balloon or a tag saying what has changed (eg:"deleted 'the'" ) - where I corrected spelling, the new word is red and underlined. The red/underlining shows up in print preview and will print when I print the document. Also a vertical line along the left margin has appeared in black that runs the length of the text but intermittently - some paragraphs it runs for 2 to 3 paragraphs, some it is only along some lines -??? - I have tried turning anything that looked remotely like it would do this in Autocorrect with no change.

Thanks for your response - that is a great website!!!! a keeper for sure!! I must have inadvertently turned on "Mark-up" - I kept searching "help" and found out I should turn off "Mark-up" and tell the program to "accept all changes" - now all the format/editing history, tags, balloons and underlining are GONE!!!! Thanks for all the SUPPORT!! "Stefan Blom" wrote: > Sounds like Track Changes.
