Default Weird text cursor in word document won't go away
I have a gray text cursor that's stuck in my word document.


I've tried to get rid of it by deleting lines of text and paragraphs but it seems to be stuck in place.

Any ideas as to how to solve this?

That is a bookmark indicator, which you can delete via Insert|Bookmark, then selecting and deleting the relevant bookmark. You can also hide them by unchecking Word's 'show bookmarks' option (File|Options|Advanced>Show document content).
