MS Word Plug-In Trouble - Getting Unformatted Citations

I'm running Zotero 1.0.3 with the 1.0b3 MS Word Plug-In and MS Word 2004. When I insert a citation, what I see in my document is all the field tags from Zotero, not the formated citation.
Example: { ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM {citationItems":[{"itemID":12654}]} }

If I then Insert a Bibliography, I similarly get the field codes, not a formatted bibliography.

BUT, if I copy the text of the citation or bibliography and paste it into a text editor back into Firefox, I get fully formated citations.

I've tried reinstalling the plug-in, but that hasn't helped.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
  • This is a Word problem, not a Zotero issue. MS Word lets you toggle between field codes and formatted text. Try alt-F9 (or option-F9 on Mac).
  • Thanks for the pointer Sean! It turned out that I had to access the option in Word Preferences in the View menu.
