I have a trouble with Trados 7 and Word 2003. I cannot hide source text on any Word files. This trouble suddenly happened this morning. I think that the trouble is relating to a setting in word or trados, but I cannot solve it by myself. Please advise.

...to SDL Trados Support - please use this forum to post topics related to SDL and/or Trados.

Have you checked your settings in Word (Tools - Options - Display - Formatting characters)? Only "All" should be checked in order to toggle using the Show/Hide button.

HTH, Ralf
