Hi, I entered stars (******...) across a whole line to separate a section of
a large document. This automatically changed to square dots across the page,
which now appear to be un-deletable!! I cannot select it, but it can be moved
to some extent.
I would be grateful of any ideas on how to remove this as it also shows up
on printing (preview).
Thank you in advance!
(I'm running MS Word 2002 on Windows XP)
