remove hard carriage returns

[Jackie Allen]

I am opening an Adobe document in Word and the document contain hard carriage
returns, which result is the text being formatted incorrectly. How can I
remove them

Do a Find/Replace for ^p (Shft+6 and lower case p) and replace with nothing.
Also the code for a line break is ^l (lower case L). I would not do replace
all, but a Replace only. Click the More button and then Special for a listing
of the usual codes for tidying up a document. Wildcards option is not
necessary.
Hope this helps
