ntambomvu is on a distinguished road
Default what are these lines on the screen?

For some reason MSword has started to put a lot of lines in the screen whenever i open a document
the only i can get rid of them is to set it to "read" view but then I cannot edit the document
this is very annoying - i prefer edditting on an unlined sheet of paperCapture.JPG


this attachment shows my predicament


thanks
and best regards
fred

They are text boundaries - Word Options > Advanced > Show Document Content > uncheck 'Show text boundaries'.
