I posted this question in the Microsoft Office Online discussion group. I
don't know if I will get an answer there, but I did see the MVP url so I
thought I'd try you. I hope this is not considered double posting.

I know how to DISPLAY or not the return codes @ the end of each line in a
doc as Graham Mayor described in 2006 in the Microsoft Office Online
discussion group. What I want to learn how to do is physically, as it were,
REMOVE the codes so that no end-of-line mark exists. You see, I bring old
docs over to MS Word 2007 from older PCs or Macs and those docs usually have
end-of-line marks (paragraph symbols). Having to REMOVE these one line at a
time is tedious and time-wasting. Thus, I'm looking for a way in MS Word
2007 to actually take these marks out of existence entirely.

BTW I saw on your home page that you're still working on MS Word 2007. I
sure don't expect your answer until you've completed that work.

Thank you very much for your help.
