I reading the above instructions for "Using Non-Printing Notes" - - I am confused because it seems the instructions are backwards (in reverse) the way it reads:
"Clear the Hidden Text check box if you don't want it displayed, select the check box if you do want it displayed."
Is this ACCURATE? Please advise. Thank you!

Despite following the procedure detailed above I have a problem with a Word 2000 document which contains symbols. Those I need are shown and printed correctly but there are occasional unwanted ones (notably Alt+196, a line drawing character) which appear in my HP LJ1100 printout but do not show on screen, regardless of the Hidden settings. Try as I may, I've been unable to remove these unwanted characters - or see them onscreen! Can anyone help?

Thank you!
Got a version of Word that uses the menu interface (Word 97, Word 2000, Word 2002, or Word 2003)? This site is for you! If you use a later version of Word, visit our WordTips site focusing on the ribbon interface.
