Default Paragraph Cleaning

Do a Find-Replace. Open the panel (Ctrl-H). In the "Find" box, type ^p
(caret-p); that's the search character for the paragraph mark. In the
"Replace with" box, type one space. You won't see anything (but your
cursor won't be against the left wall.) The click "Replace All." Your
entire document will become a single paragraph.

If you only want to do it to part of your document, then select the
part of it that you want to make into a single paragraph, and do the
Find-Replace thing.

Wishing more healty days to everbody, I want to ask something about Word
paragraph.
I have a text containing paragraphs. But I want to have this text in one
paragraph.
So, is there any shortcut or a way after blocking the whole text to
clean paragraph formats.
I have posted two pictures that the first shows "What I have", and the
second shows "What I want".
Thanks to all of you.
