I was sent a very long doc (using word 2000); there are numerous places

with
3 hard returns & I only want 1. This means I have 2 blank lines that I

need
to delete. Find/Replace does not recognize the hard return & doing it
manually will take several hours if not days. I'm sure there is a way to

do
this, I simply don't know what it is. TIA for any assistance.
