Code in Word

As of the last day or so, all code characters, such as hypertext or the automatic text in a header, have been showing in Word as the text rather than the result. IOW, my automated header says {Date\*mergeformat}{time\*mergeformat}Page {Page} of {Numpages}. Hypertext shows up in the same source code instead of the object, to borrow a description.

How do I get it to look like HTML instead of a description thereof, or page numbers instead of the above gibberish?

Thank you

Hi Gdubin, and welcome!

Try this: In Tools menu - Options - View, make sure that 'show field codes' is unchecked.

This is where to go in Word 2002, if you are on a different version search 'field codes' in 'help'

HTH,

Chris
