Space in Paragraph
Using Word 2007, a space appeared in a paragraph below a chart that I cut
out. I cannot delete the space in the paragraph or see what's blocking it. Any suggestions? (Word Perfect showed what would take up such space). Robin |

Thanks for your prompt reply. I had checked the paragraph settings. How do I
turn on, though, the non-printing characters?

Robin,
When JoAnn asked you to check the paragraph settings -- and you said you had -- did you check to see that "space before" and "space after" on that dialog screen were set to zero??

Space in Paragraph
Thank you Suzanne & David,
Yea. I checked the spacings b/f and after in the paragraph and the lines. They are all single space with 0 points b/f and after. I even checked the fonts and character spacings. It should be noted that the paragraph was fine b/f I cut out the chart. Afterwhich, the space appeared in the middle of 2 paragraphs below the cutout chart. Anyway of finding out what's in this space, as with WordPerfect, so it can be deleted?

Do you have text boundaries displayed? If not, use Office Button | Word

Check the box for text boundaries, and you may find that you've got a stray text box, frame, graphic, or other object in that space.
