the formatting element that you inserted and now wish to delete. In
WP, that is easy. Press Reveal Codes, find the code you don't want,
and delete it.
I'm with you all the way - except for the last three words!
If your document "looks wrong but you don't know how to find the
formatting element that you inserted", you certainly need a simple way
to discover this. (I don't know whether any problems I have in this
area are Writer's or mine!) But users must not be allowed to make
changes at that level; instead, they must be required, having
discovered what the problem is, to solve it where it was caused.
Anything else breaks the structure.

Why must you insist on making the writer go thru hoops to fix something
when Reveal Codes can do it for him quickly and easily? Just let us have
the capability--if *you* want to go thru those
hoops, then go ahead--I don't want to have to!
