I don't like these little boxes Word (office 365) displays when I highlight text or copy text (Cntrl + v). In the latter case a little box appears one row lower and hides part of the text. I would like to make Word stop this practise but don't know how. Is it possible? | | | finnword1 United States Local time: 20:26 English to Finnish + ... Try pressing the "ESC" key. | Jan 10, 2020 |

I keep a copy of Word 2003 installed that I use regularly when I want to do things that became much harder in later versions, such as working with styles, or comparing documents. Office 2000/2003 was really very good. Since then it's been all downhill. | | | Tom in London United Kingdom Local time: 01:26 Member (2008) Italian to English

My default version is Word 2008. Subsequent versions have removed important functions and have made the application far more cumbrous to use. I use Word 2007 (with the installed update from long ago). A while back I tried out a more recent version and was put off by the software's insistence that I register a user name and password, and connect the software to the Internet. I'm doing fine with the 2007 version. | |

I would gladly use Word 2007 or even 2003, but Microsoft does not support spellchecking in those anymore. For a long time my SDL Trados Studio would not use Word dictionary for spellchecking, until I removed Office 2010 and installed 365 anew. Then the red lines started to appear beneath my misspelled words in Studio. What a relief. (Of course the fault was in the SDL software, which did not recognize 365-Word instead of 2010). | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » How to turn these off in Word?
