Im trying to update my CV using word and its not showing the text box
added (its shows up fine in print preview). It just says:

{shape /*mergeformat}

I tried to open some other documents and links etc have turned int
similar gobbledy gook. How can i return the document editing screen t
normal so that i can see my work as i go along.

Id be grateful for any advice and if you need to know more info from m
please please ask.

Kind regard
 
Presuming you have Word 2007 (?), Word Options, Advanced, 'Show Drawing and
Text Boxes on Screen'.
 
Press Alt+F9 to toggle the display from field codes (what you're seeing) to
field results.
