I have a file which has horizontal lines that I've created by entering ---

I'd like to use Find to find-and-replace them. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks.
No, you can't use Find for them. They're paragraph borders
(
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...RidOfLine.htm), and Find
doesn't have any way to look for borders.
If you just want to remove all of them -- and you don't have any other paragraph
borders in the document that you want to keep -- then select everything
(Ctrl+A), go to Format Borders & Shading, select No Border (make sure the
Apply To box is set to Paragraph), and click OK.
