I was able to delete the paragraph mark or pilcrow when I
open a new word document. However, I still have a line
under the cursor as I type. How do I remove that annoying
line? I have followed the document "What do all those
funny marks, like the dots....mean?" which was helpful
with the paragraph mark.

.
That line does not move along with the cursor, however,
Click to expand...
it stays on the left side of the page when I complete a
sentence.
 
That mark (in Normal view only) shows the end of the document. There is no
way to get rid of it.

Thank you Suzanne. For some reason, I don't remember ever
seeing it before. Have a great week.
 
The line under the cursor is removed by going to View on
toolbar, then unclick Normal. It defaults to Print View.
Thanks again.
 
I did mention that it is displayed only in Normal view. If you're happy with
Print Layout view, then that's the solution.
