Default Ctrl+Q

Hello!

I have suffered that problem for literally years... Hover your cursor above the annoying black line across your page and press "Ctrl+Q" and the line will go away.

'---' is an automatic formatting setting that comes as default in MS. That's fine except most people don't know how to change these settings. Go to Word Options and under Proofing look for 'AutoCorrect Options.' Search for the '---' sequence and remove it.

Horizontal lines have appeared in my text in Word 2007 compatibility mode. I
cannot put the cursor on them. they do not respond to backspace or delete. They
cannot be treated as objects. i do not where they came from I do not find any
solution in HELP. It tells how to add lines but not how to remove them.
Perhaps I am asking the wrong question on the help screen.
I appreciate your courtesy.

Assuming the lines print (that is, they are not the drawing grid), see

PS: Suzanne, your method (you have copied and pasted the URL to that article a ridiculous number of times) is not the solution for this problem. It is an automatic formatting issue and is not fixed by adjusting borders.
