Can't delete dotted line; apparently a page break

[Sanguinarius]

I've got this pesky dotted line right in the middle of my document's page. It
apparently is a page break because all text after it goes onto the next page.
I've gone into Draft View and made the paragraph markers show, but I can't
select the line in order to delete it.

The text after it, I go into where it says "Page break before" and it is NOT
selected.

I don't know how it got there (IE, I didn't put it there) but it's messing
things up! I don't know how to get rid of it!

In the text after it, uncheck "Keep lines together" and "Keep with next"
too.

Are you sure you are looking at a Page Break? Does the page definitely break
there?

No, you can't delete a soft page break, but there is something causing the
text to move to the next page. If it's not "Page break before," then it is
very likely, as others have suggested, a combination of "Keep with next" and
"Keep lines together" applied to several paragraphs in succession.
