Garbled text only in one section of document - will not go away

T

tar

Hi,

I am editing a Word 2000 document that has been used by multiple
people. There is one paragraph (for lack of a better description)
where the text is unreadable. Highlighting the text, I get 1/2 and
1/4 sized lines.

Deleting the text in the section only moves the text below into this
section and it becomes garbled. Deleting the "paragraph" also does no
good. I am able to read what is in the section by changing the font
size to 48. I then copied it out into a new section but it then
creates a new section with a new section number that is out of synch
with the Table of Contents...

This is 5MB file with lots of special formatting, I have tried copy
and pasting all the sections other than this one but the new document
is very screwy and not all the formatting copies over...

We have no idea how this transpired or what this is and are at a loss.
I've done a brief search here but found nothing very relevant. I
came in at the end of this document so don't know if this section was
copied from another document or what. However I am sure I can find out
anything you may need to know to help sole this. Sorry this is
longwinded, thanks. Anyway I just need to get rid of the freakin
thing. :)
