Keep telling myself "next time I will". I think the next "next time" it is a promise I must keep. Why? Because none of the techniques for removing the presumed paragraph border may have worked. Even going so far as "Select All" then "Clear Direct Formatting" has only partially worked. What is "partially worked"? The line is removed. However when additional paragraphs are entered in the document the line reappears in its original location. I might have posted a remark on this about the time of one of the recent recurring conversations about reveal codes. The only successful workarounds I've found for this are recreate from a blank sheet a new version of the document and copy / paste as text the contents of the old document. Or open AOO writer and paste the contents there. For whatever reason the persistent formatting problem doesn't paste into the AOO document. Note: The steps Select All, Copy, Delete, Paste As Text in the LO source document does not eliminate the persistent formatting problem. Only Paste As Text into a new document will. Just wanted to let all know that if the op has tried the suggested fixes and found none to work folks shouldn't presume that the directions were not correctly followed. -- Alan CISSP, CCENT, LPIC-1, ITIL Foundations v3, MS Computer & Information Science ...credentials provided to assure that I'm not a noob and can report reasonably well on experiences at the keyboard -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
