DELETING AUTOMATED LINES IN DOCUMENT
How do you delete an automated line within a document? The line is not a
drawing object, so I cannot select it and delete it. I inserted it by holding my SHIFT button down, while tapping my ' - ' button twice, and then pressing the ENTER button. That function created a solid line that goes across my document. Now I would like to remove it. What can I do?! Please help! |

DELETING AUTOMATED LINES IN DOCUMENT
I don't know how to delete it, but I know how to eliminate it.
1. Open a new document. 2. Leave several returns between your text and the line. 3. Highlight the test. 4. Copy. 5. Paste into the new document. 6. In the "Paste Options" box that appears in the lower corner of your paste, click: "Keep Text Only". "Bxrswfe" wrote: How do you delete an automated line within a document?
