Changing paragraph marks.

[NewZeta]

Hi guys. I'm new to this forum and I have been desperately looking for the solution to my problem.

The attachment image file you see above this post shows two kinds of paragraph marks, that you can turn on and off to help your editing.

both A and B style seems familiar, right? but my Words only show the B.

You see, I am an old-user, and I would prefer a LOT if I had the first paragraph mark(A) rather than the second one.(B)

I am using a multi-user computer in my home and in my account the Word only shows B whenever I turn my paragraph marks on, causing much of frustration.

The problem emerges when I use the Word from the other accounts, my sister's for example. It shows the A!

Is there a problem with my Word? or Is there some way to change/convert, or whatever the word I'm looking for might be... the paragraph marks?

I have touched all the options, and customize taps in Tools bar.

I even asked the school teacher about this. (not to mention the word Assistant, who usually proves its uselessness by showing completely irrelevant answers.)

so Please, I am asking and begging to all you experts.

What is the problem?

Is there any way to change the paragraph marks?(formatting marks, they are sometimes called.)

Currently I am using Microsoft Word 2002. It's best suited to me than XP for some reason.

And, in school I'm using Word XP. So I would appreciate the help for the both versions.

Thanks.

I even asked the school teacher about this.

So, you are using "Microsoft Office Word 2002" at home and it shows the "q"

symbol you do not want, instead of the arrow symbol, but in school you use

Word XP and it has the arrow symbol you do want, not the "q" symbol?

I only have Word 2003 to work with here but this is what I can do...

Insert > Symbol

There you can change the shortcut keys for any symbol you want but dude,

there is no symbol that is an arrow pointing down and to the left like you show

in your image!

It does not appear in "Character Map" under "Start > Accessories > System Tools" either.

The only place I have ever seen that symbol is on my return key.

Maybe its just something that appears on your printouts?

Here's the demonstration...

One is from my sister's account, and the other's from my account.

Oh, and by the way: In case you ask, the language is Korean.

Cheers

If you're old school, you'd know they are different characters.

One is soft return, other hard return - forgot which is which. Try pressing "enter" and "shift"-"enter" to see the difference. You can have them both in a document.

Of course, maybe your case is something else, defined in Korean language.

Yes, I know-. Hard and Soft returns. but there is one problem; the screenshots I showed were just the same file opened in the different Windows XP account.

Just to clarify, in the screenshots I gave they are SAME file viewed in DIFFERENT XP ACCOUNT. also, they are all hard return.

Of course, maybe your case is something else, defined in Korean language.

Actually, I forgot to mention; it doesn't matter what the language is. I just needed to take a screenshot for comparison, and that file happened to be open when I was thinking about getting a screenshot.

Of course, I bet you wouldn't want to see my bad essay, would you?

Cheers.

Maybe it's just another font? (Missing in one of the installations)

Like I said, there is one Word program in my computer. There are just two different accounts that use this Word.

My logic is, if Word in my sister's account Shows the paragraph marks I want, why can't mine?

Must be some setting matter, and not some missing fonts, because clearly I have a same word in one computer.
