when opening word, there's a back slash (\) on screen, how can it permanently
go away.

If it's on your screen, try a gentle cleaner and a soft cloth.

If it's in your blank Word document,

or 2002. can you help. thank you much.

Follow those directions - it's my understanding they do work.

The article is still applicable (just not updated for Word 2007 yet), but
the template you need to deal with is named Normal.dotm, and you can find it
in the folder listed for User Templates at Office Button | Word Options |
Trust Center | Trust Center Settings... | Trusted Locations.

But I'm wondering if what you're seeing might not be just the paragraph mark
at the end of the default empty paragraph. Try clicking the button in the
Paragraph group of the Home tab that has the � symbol on it.
