How do I strip manual line breaks

[Guest]

I have a document that was converted from Quark to Word. It has added manual
line breaks and stripped out the paragraph breaks. Is there a way to search
and replace them?

I'm using Word Professional 2003.

Yes. Click Edit, replace from the menu bar. Click the more button. With
your insertion point in the find what box, click the special button and
choose manual line break. In the replace with box enter paragraph mark from
the special list. Click replace all to finish up.
