how do i delete a line created by typing "----------"
I have been working on a large document for a few days.
I put some dashes "----------" like that to mark a place where i needed to insert some info. I have now come back, inserted the data and can find no way of deleting the line that word put in there. I can move it up and down sure enough! But i cannot delete it or select it or anything. There is nothing in the help that i could find... Any ideas poeple PS no i cant add lines afterwards and delete it that way, the formatting is such that if i add lines aftwords it mashes the next page :S |

The AutoFormat function has changed the dashes into a paragraph border
in the paragraph above the line. Use Format Borders & Shading None to remove it.
