Leave private messages in a Word document
A special feature in Word lets you leave secret messages in your document. Press Ctrl, Shift and H. When you start typing the text will not appear on screen. To see it, select the Home tab in the Ribbon of Word at the top of your screen and look in the Paragraph section for the Show/Hide Formatting button (it looks like a P).
Click it and your text will appear. This icon is in the Standard toolbar in earlier versions of Word. Hold down Shift, Ctrl and the 8 key to alter the view.
