Default How do you remove an "automatic line" in Word 2007?

Hi.

In my document, I originally had some text with some automatic lines
above/below it (the kind that are automatically generated when you hit the
dash key a few times and a long line magically appears).

The problem now is that an automatic lines appears every time I hit a
carriage return. It's really annoying and I can't figure out how to get rid
of it. I've tried highlighting the text, hitting one of the general style
buttons, but the line inevitably returns at some point.

What am i missing? Thanks.

BTW, when I try to "remove" the line by hitting a style button, it either
disappears only to reappear later, or it simply moves "up" the page.

Please help. I am losing my mind. Thanks.

Brilliant. This has worked!!! I have struggled with this problem for weeks. FYI - I am using MS Office for Mac 2008 but the instructions for Word 2003 worked a treat. Many Thanks. Jak
