Suddenly Typing in Red Underline!!!!

[obillo]

Typing in a new Word doc, all of a sudden my typing turns to red
underline--and won't allow me to change back to normal. I know I accidentally
brushed some key or other w/fingers of my right hand (I'm a v. bad 2-finger
typist) just before that happened.
Also--there are red dotted lines in my doc showing what I deleted, notes of
formatting. There's a box marked 'final showing markup' visible up in the
tool bar--I'm pretty sure it wasn't there before. Obviously I've accidentally
activated some feature or other. How do I ghet back to normal? (Normal to me
means just plain letters on the screen in the size and color of my
choice--and nothing else.)

You have activated the option to track changes. Turn off that option and
accept all changes.
In Word to 2003 you can do that from the Review toolbar. In Word 2007 its
the review tab on the ribbon.

Thanks, Graham, but I should have mentioned my dinosaur status. That is, I'm too technologically backward to know what a Review Toolbar is (I have W.2003). I don't see anything so marked on my screen. But, while fearfully strolling around the toolbars I can see, I came to the TOOLS menu, which has Track Changes (CTRL+Shift+E). This seems to be a toggle (turn on/turn off), for a feature that allows keeping track of editing changes in a document. I can't imagine how I accidentally activated it, although I have noticed that accidentally brushing space bar and 1 or more other keys with my draggy-saggy fingers see,s to short-circuit the kbd into doing odd things (includng erasing entire documents). I certainly did NOT enter CTRL+Shift+E! Anyway--problem solved and I sally forth better informed. Thank you for your help.

Turn off Track Changes: Ctrl-Shift-E, or double-click "TRK" in the
status bar at the bottom, or click the icon on the Reviewing toolbar
(or the Reviewing tab of the ribbon).

Then find the icon on that same toolbar/ribbon section for Accept
Change -- it's a blue checkmark. In 2003 there's a tiny arrow next to
it; click that and choose Accept All Changes. In 2007 it's a big icon
with an arrow below it -- click that and choose Accept All Changes.
