Default Is there any way to remove numerous hard returns quickly?

I am using Microsoft Office Word 2003 and reworking a huge table. There are
numerous hard returns within the tables that I am haveing to remove one at a
time to restructure the tables. Is there any way to remove them all at once.
I tried "Find and Replace" and "Remove all Formatting" which did not work.
THANKS!!

See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...eanWebText.htm.

Edit Replace should work if you do it correctly. The article discusses the
difference between manual line breaks and paragraph breaks, which may be the
cause of your problem.
