How can I remove the section breaks?
At least I think they're called section breaks...
Word has this great feature where you can type a few dashes and press Enter, you you get a line appearing all the way across the page. But how can you get rid of it once you have it? I select it, along with text both above and below it, and press Delete, but it refuses to go away! Thanks in advance. -- Peyton Todd |

See the article "There is a line in my document that I can't delete because
I can't select it. How did it get there, and what can I do about it?" at: http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...tRidOfLine.htm -- Hope this helps.

Thanks again, Doug! That worked, too, so now you're batting two for two. But
suddenly I have a new problem, which I just posted in the Word Tables section: when I move the mouse pointer over horizontal lines in tables, it no longer turns into a couple of little double lines to let me drag them up and down! -- Peyton Todd "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: See the article "There is a line in my document that I can't delete because I can't select it.

Are you in Print Layout view? I believe this option is not available in
Normal view. -- Suzanne S.
