Spaces in between pargraphs

[Luca Notini]

Dear Group,

I have a long document in which some paragraphs contain a second paragraph
mark between paragraphs. This means that the space in between paragraphs is
inconsistent. At the moment my only choice seems to be to go through each of
the paragraphs in the document and detect/delete the superfluous paragraph
marks. This will be a time consuming task and I would appreciate it if
anybody could point out an easier way of achieving this.

Thanks,

Luca

Have you considered using Find/Replace?

Find: ^p^p
Replace: ^p

Should take care of all of your empty paragraphs.

Thank you for the suggestion I never knew you could use find/replace to do
this; seems logical in hindsight.

Thank you,
