MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / June 2004Word Columns
I'm creating a 3 fold pamphlet in Word XP. I have three columns of text. My problem is that Word (or me)somehow seems to have put what appears to be a break in at a certain point in one of the columns. It appears as a line on the screen (and on the page when printing) in that column. When I move the cursor over it I get an up & down arrow over the line with an = sign between the arrows. I can move the line up by holding down the left mouse button (a broken line appears across all columns) but not down. I cannot type anything below the line in this column. This is really frustrating. Any suggestions? I'm at the desperate stage! Sounds like a paragraph border. See the article “There is a line in my document that I can't delete because I can't select it. How did it get there, and what can I do about it?“ at: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/CantGetRidOfLine.htm  SignaturePlease post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be interested.

My first reaction was the same as Doug's (and that is probably the correct diagnosis), but from your statement that you "cannot type anything below the line in this column," I'm wondering if it might be a column break. If so, you should see it so identified in Normal view, and you should be able to select and delete it (actually this should also be possible in Print Layout view). -- Suzanne S.
