Default How do I stop lines of text breaking where I don't want them to?

Mr Devlin asked Sen-Sgt Hurley if he was aware that (police procedural)
rules
clearly prohibit officers (involved in any incident to be investigated)
from talking
among themselves because it may contaminate evidence.


How do I make the lines wrap correctly?

If you click on the Show/Hide (¶) button and it reveals a ¶ after the words
"rules" and "talking", See the article "Cleaning up text pasted from the
Web at:

Press Ctrl+Shift+8 or click the button to display nonprinting
characters. If there are paragraph marks ( symbols) or manual line
breaks (left-pointing arrows) at the ends of lines, delete them. Press
Ctrl+Shift+8 or click the button again to turn off the marks. (See
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...PrintChars.htm.)

If there's a lot of this text, you can use the Replace function to
remove them. See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/CleanWebText.htm.

Try this. Got to:

http://www.papercut.com/emailStripper.htm

and download emailStripper. It works great to eliminate all the 's, line
ends, and paragraph breaks inside of a paragraph. It works in one pass and
is very quick. It does insert a short advertising paragraph at the end of
the cleaned up document but it is easy to remove. It is free.

Stripmail is a similar tool that you can download from my web site and has
no advertising.
