Invisible code appearing in query output #205

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Editing three material note fields(and Informal locality).
2. Viewing notes fields in query tool and associates report.
3. download query results to .csv

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Invisible computer code (font?) in notes fields is visible in query output and 
seems to impede data entry and create spurious query output.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
v3.0 build 570 but similar issues experienced in v2.5

Please provide any additional information below.
Spreadsheet example of spurious records and 'invisible' text.
Query .blq file for spreadsheet download.
Word file with more explanation of data entry problem.

This is occurring because the RTF in the fields is being exported including the 
formatting markup. This can be solved by selected the 'Plain' formatting option 
on the query tool field. 

it may be possible that not every field that can contain RTF has the option, 
but this is covered in a different issue
