G'Day Enigma,

I think it's probably not a good idea to use the term 'hard return' - it has
connotations of ASCII terminals and 'text' files with 'end of line' that might
be a CR, a LF, a CR/LF pair or a LF/CR pair - depending on the operating
system standard and/or the software creating/editing the file.

Visual Basic for Applications provides the following constants:
vbCr
vbLf
vbCrLf (and others such as vbTab and vbFormFeed)
to meet special needs.

Word has a system of 'breaks', of which the following are relevant:
Paragraph Marker Enter
Line break Shift+Enter
Page Break Ctrl+Enter......

There are also Section breaks, Column breaks and, for HTML pages, Text
Wrapping breaks.

i was interested in a hard return that does not separate. for example
shift-space is a hard space that prevents splitting on it. i want a text
line and a table to stay together without making another row in the table on
top. even though i have unclicked, "allow separate rows," my tables continue
to split. office xp, windows home xp. intel chip. thanks! dean email:

Look at your paragraph settings. One of them is "Keep with next"
