Indeed they seem to be ^13's cleverly disguised as paragraph marks. I am
sure there is a reason for that silliness!

As Jezebel says, they may be line breaks. But more often they are
something
that is really a sort of line break (or line feed) but represented as a
paragraph break (using the ¶ symbol if you display nonprinting
characters).
In such cases, searching for ^13 (rather than ^p or ^l) will usually find
them.

I am having a bizarre time using Search or Search and Replace in a Word
document that came to me originally as a text document, which I opened
and
reformatted and saved in Word. The For most of the document--82 pages,
25
lines per page--every line ends with a HRt/Paragraph Mark. I had added
a
few prior to and after those 82 pages. If I search Word will find all
the
Paragraph Marks I inserted before and after the 82 pages, but it will
skip
all 2050 or so in those 82 pages. Can anybody explain why this has
happened? Is there something "invisible" about some paragraph marks but
not
others? I have used Search and replace a lot and have never seen this
issue.
