OpenOffice Writer does not think of the paragraph marker itself as a
character. Instead, you need to search just for the rogue spaces at the
ends of your paragraphs, but require that they are indeed at the end of
a paragraph. You do this using the $ character in a regular
expression. In the Find & Replace dialogue, click More Options and tick
"Regular expressions". Search for " +$" - that's space-plus-dollar -
and replace with nothing. The space-plus part matches one or more
spaces, and the dollar sign anchors the match to the end of a
paragraph. Replacing just the spaces with nothing achieves what you
need. (Remember that you have not matched the paragraph marker, which
does not exist as a separate character.)
I trust this helps.
Yep, that is the answer and it works like a charm so ignore the
post I just made. (Didn't see your answer right away. Blind, what
can I say, blind.)
Thanks,
Allen
