Although several people here use both PCs and Macs and may be able to give
you an answer soon, it's likely that more people in a PC group have
experienced your specific problem. Here's where all the groups are listed:

No Probs -- the web frontend is sillier than a chook with its head cut off.
It drops PC questions in here all the time.

Sadly, I have Word 2007 here and I can't think of anything that would
prevent it from coming out of Draft view, either.

So now I need to ask you what indication you have that you are in Draft
View. (Yeah, I know it "looks" like draft view, but I don't think it is.
So now I am trying to find out what Word thinks it is.)

I am wondering if it is Outline View. Which of the little squares at the
bottom left is clicked?

Or could you have mistakenly opened the document in "Recover Text from Any
File" mode (which removes all the formatting)?

Cheers
