A dotted line appears in text and won't delete.
I am typing up an assignment and have found a dotted loine has appeared part
way through the document. It will not delete. It comes at the end of a paragraph. I deleted the paragraph and then put the space back in, but it simply moved the line down the document. When it would move no further, I scanned through the document to find ANOTHER dotted line, which seemed to prevent the first one moving any more. What do I do? |

Two possiblities:
1. At the ned of the typing you have been pressing Ctrl+Enter, this inserts a Page Break. See: http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...PrintChars.htm for further information on these codes. Use Ctrl+Shft+8 or the ΒΆ icon (on the Home ribbon or the Standard toolbar) to toggle the view of these. 2. Unlikely - but see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...tRidOfLine.htm Hope this helps DeanH "Alex" wrote: I am typing up an assignment and have found a dotted loine has appeared part way through the document.
