It appears that I may have been too hasty, however. I tested with a border
applied in the ordinary way. Doug's test suggests that in this case
Backspace is operating as a sort of Undo (as it often does with AutoCorrect
and AutoFormat actions).

Sorry John, but Suzanne is absolutely correct. As soon as you press enter
after typing the ###, a Border is applied to the para above as formatting.
Turn on your ¶ and you'll see that there is _not_ one at the end of the
line, nor can you place the insertion point at beginning or end of the
border.

If you are typing ###, pressing Enter and winding up with ###¶ it is
because
you have the 'AutoFortmat as you Type' feature for Borders turned Off.

How can you NOT have a paragraph marker after the line, you type ### and
hit
enter.???? It does and it works both in Word 2000, and 2003 for me.
You
still have the ### signs though

I would be very surprised to find that this worked, especially since
there
is no paragraph mark after the line, which is a border.

twice

How do I permanently remove a line generated by typing ### and then a
hard
return?
