It's possible. Although I'd first check whether the text might have been
formatted as "hidden", and that display of "hidden" text is currently being
suppressed. Since you don't mention the version of Word involved, it's not
possible to give you a complete path to where you can check that setting, but
you should find it in Tools/Options/View.
