My footnotes are coded strange

sarahledant
I have used Zotero for my thesis in order to create the footnotes. I have opened my document this morning and all the footnotes appear somehow coded strangly. Here is a screenshot:

If anyone could explain me what's going on it would be fantastic!

    That's the information that Zotero embeds in your document so it knows how to (re-)format the citations. Simply press alt+F9 to hide it.

    Thank you so much! So much panic for such an easy solution!

    I am having the same problem - the encoding keeps switching to the embedded information. I switch it back using alt F9 as suggested. That works temporarily, but shortly thereafter another citation switches to the full information view. This makes it very difficult to edit the document (an NIH grant proposal w/ very strict page limits). Is there a way to "lock in" the correct view?

    This is really Word functionality--the field codes are not just Zotero, so you'd have to look into it from that side.
