I'm trying to work with a document someone else created, and it has retained some attributes I'd like to nix. Specifically, between each word is a bit of gray that's to *show* me where spaces are in the document.

Thanks, but I can see them without that gray placeholder thingy and I find them to be distracting!

How do I get rid of them? I'm using Open Office, not Word, but I assume if I knew what that was called I could figure out how to UN-format it.

Anyone?
Anyone?

Sorry WOW, I don't use Open Office, but I know in Microsoft Office if you go into the "view" tab you can control that feature there.
