Default Word 2000 doc black dotted line appeared which I cannot delete

In a long Word 2000 document I have made several alterations. One of these
manipulations has cause a heavy dotted line to appear. This dotted line now
moves as I add further typing to the document.
I have tried all methods to delete the line but it simply appears in a
differnet position. The line is printed and I don't want it to be on the
print.

Hi,

We can go to the Word Normal mode and click on View Footnotes and
click on Footnote Separator
If we get the line appearing there then delete the line
I guess that should work if I am understanding it correctly

Since there is nothing in that article that mentions the Footnote Separator,
and since the problem you describe sounds much more like an automatic border
than a footnote separator, I suggest you read the article again.
