Hi all,

Denise, what you are hearing is the mark-up for RTF.  Dunnow why it's showing 
up like that, but Word shouldn't be displaying those chars.  Don't delete them 
because they are part of the RTF mark-up.  I don't know what to say.  I don't 
know why Word would do this.  Your phone probably doesn't have the capability 
to read RTF files.  So that's why your're getting them .  I think if you 
deleted some of the chars, that may be why Word is displaying them.

Don't use Wordpad to proof RTF files.  It doesn't show the page breaks 
properly.  Use Word or Kurzie or Open Office or something like that.

Me, I think I'd change it to txt and then redo it in RTF or better yet, save as 
a word file first then put it into RTF.  What you did by taking out the "par"s 
is you destroyed the format markers.  I dunnow what to tell you to do.  Your 
file's munged now.  A good solid reason for making copies of files before you 
mess with them.  Sorry for bringing you bad news.  Please don't shoot the 
messenger!


Ann P.
