Turning off annoying MS Word features.

(12/2/08) Word features are actually instruments of torture. One helpful site on turning them off can be found here:

"How to turn off annoying MS Word Features." Two or three.net, 10/20/06.

Some of the commenters found the advice on getting rid of the unwelcome display of markup did not work. Jim provided this additional tip:

For Word 2003, I find that I can turn off the View Markup in following way: 1. Turn on TRK. 2. Change the View setting to Final. 3. Turn off TRK. 4. Save. The document reopens showing the Final without markup.
H/t: Algona81 who appears to have added helpful screen shots.

UPDATE (3/26/09):

Also see Microsoft support article: "Markup text may reappear when you open or when you save a document of Word."
