大家好，

I am trying to save time and use Microsoft Word to transcribe a conversation in Chinese characters
into pinyin. I could work around it and transcribe it myself, but it seems like a really useful
tool that I could use in the future.

I found this tool in:
Format > Asian Layout > Phonetic Guide

When I use the phonetic guide, I get all of this crazy formatting stuff that I can't seem to sort
through. Do I have some sort of strange setting on? I noticed that I get a similar result when I
type in website names and hit space to make it become a link.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks so much!

Problem solved! Apparently I had "Field Codes" toggled. Sorry for the waste of a post! But maybe
if someone else comes across this problem, they will find this post!
