I just started a new job and each time I go to use Word 2003, I get the "+"
symbol eact time I hit the enter key. How in the world do I turn this off?


Thanks :)
 
Hi, Suzanne:

I appreciate your quick response but the "+" (plus) symbol I get each time I
hit the ENTER key is definately not a Pilcrow. I followed the link you
provided and it had nothing to do with the issue I am having.

It does seem to be some sort of formatting and/or tracking marker but I am
helpless to figure out how to get rid of it.
 
What version of Word? Do you have any sort of document management
application running?

I am using MS Word 2003. If there is some sort of document management program
running, I don't know. This is my first day on the job and no one else in the
office is having this issue with their Word application. + <-----

Above (see the "+" sign after the word application) is an example of the
issue I am having. It seems to be affecting ALL my MS applications, even when
I type in a search field on Google or Yahoo. Each time I hit the ENTER key,
the "+" sign appears and the cursor drops down to the next line.
 
If it's happening universally, then it sounds as if the problem might be
with the keyboard. Is it programmable? Have you tried plugging in a
different keyboard?
