Indeed they seem to be ^13's cleverly disguised as paragraph marks. I am
sure there is a reason for that silliness! "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... As Jezebel says, they may be line breaks. But more often they are something that is really a sort of line break (or line feed) but represented as a paragraph break (using the ¶ symbol if you display nonprinting characters). In such cases, searching for ^13 (rather than ^p or ^l) will usually find them. -- Suzanne S.

"Joseph McGuire" wrote in message ... I am having a bizarre time using Search or Search and Replace in a Word document that came to me originally as a text document, which I opened and reformatted and saved in Word. The For most of the document--82 pages, 25 lines per page--every line ends with a HRt/Paragraph Mark. I had added a few prior to and after those 82 pages. If I search Word will find all the Paragraph Marks I inserted before and after the 82 pages, but it will skip all 2050 or so in those 82 pages. Can anybody explain why this has happened? Is there something "invisible" about some paragraph marks but not others? I have used Search and replace a lot and have never seen this issue. -- Joe McGuire |
