Default Pilcrow (carriage return) won't go away

What happens if you select the following material and drag it into the
position immediately before the ¶?

To get the table where you want it, you may then have to place the selection
inside the table and hover the mouse over the table until the square box
with the direction arrows appears at the top left of the table then left
click and drag on that box to move the table where you want it.

Doug, I must not have made my meaning clear. I don't need to make it
invisible, I want to get rid of it. The material coming after it should be
part of the same paragraph. But when I put the cursor on it and press
Delete,
nothing happens!

Hello. I have a Word table (quite tiny - just one row about an inch and
a
half wide, justified rightward on the page), that I somehow laboriously
managed to get the text to wrap around (don't ask me how). It looked
great
till I re-worded some of the lines just above it, and now I find that
one
ends in a carriage return which refuses to delete. What might be wrong?

Also, assuming I manage to delete it, is it likely I will have the same
trouble I had before getting the text to wrap around the table? Usually
that's no problem for me, but this time the text kept refusing to sit
beside
the table, and I fear the inadvertent carriage return may have
something
to
do with how I somehow got it to work.

Thanks in advance,
