When I paste a webpage into Word I'm seeing the code and not the final product. Where do I find the setting to change that so the document looks like the webpage? -- Beth |

You will probably need to move to Web Page Preview and save the document as HTML before it looks proper

What "code" are you talking about?
If it looks like { HYPERLINK LINK }, then press Alt+F9 to toggle from field codes to field results.

what you typed is what it looks like in my word docs as well as footers. alt+F9 did not work but if I right click on { HYPERLINK LINK }, and click on "select hyperlink" then just the web site address appears as normal. I save the word document and open it again and its right back to { HYPERLINK LINK } again. It only started doing this "magically" about a week ago. It's like some universal setting got checked off by mistake and I don't know how to turn it off. It's only on my computer in word becasue when I email the document to others they don't see it.
aaaahhhh!!!!

I assure you that Alt+F9 will toggle these field codes. If just a single code is toggled, you may have to press Alt+F9 twice. Or you can go to the View tab of Tools | Options and clear the check box for "Field codes."
