= SUMMARY =

Tab leader characters will not display in a document if the Options “show non-printing symbols:” field in Microsoft Word version 5.00, or the Options “visible:” field in earlier versions, is set to All. However, the leader characters display with the Print Preview command in Word version 5.00.

To display leader characters on the edit screen, set the Options “show non-printing symbols:” in Word version 5.00, or the Options “visible:” field in earlier versions, to None or Partial.

To display leader characters on the edit screen in Word version 5.50, from View Preferences (ALT, V, E), remove the “X” in the Tabs box by pressing the spacebar.
