I remember a comment about lines in text.  But for the sake of me, I

I am pasting together a document,  I put in about 4 underscores to
mark a spot for insertion.  WOW it turned into a line, a long line,
a line that will not go!

Please how do I rid myself on the line.  I found in HELP how to
INSERT a line but nothing about deleting a line.

Place the cursor at the paragraph marker immediately preceding the line and selct Format > Default. The line should disappear. -- Documentation Co-Lead PLEASE - keep list traffic on the list. Email sent directly to me may be ignored utterly.

Well, I tried such as soon as I read your answer.

I turned on the unprintable characters, had all the para signs plus showing, put the cursor at the preceding para, clicked Format>Default the para went smaller the font size was changed. Then my feeble lonesome mind said, that is not the correct para sign, you need to find the correct sign--- so I went to the next preceding, same thing. I walked up the document about half a page, then the line disappeared. Went back and corrected the font size.

Thank you
Is that the only way to delete the line? The line can be a handy tool, but after it needs to be deleted.

THat is how I fix things after the fact. If you notice immediately, use
Ctrl+Z to remove the offending line.
as hinted by Doug, the way to remove it is with Format->paragraph->Borders (Tab), click on no-border icon, OK.
