Default Remove Paragraph Marks at the end of lines

We are using Word 2003. I have a user who has copied a large portion of text
from another document and pasted into Word. The paragraphs are not breaking
correctly (most lines have a paragraph mark at the end). The user seems to
think there is a feature in word called autoflow - that will remove the marks
from the end of each line, but not between paragraphs. I suggested an
search/replace and then format between the lines. Of course, there are many
pages of this document. Any ideas????
