remove horizontal line between text (not table border)

[sleepy77]

I am trying to delete a horizontal line between text in a document (the kind
of line that appears after you type --- and then hit enter). Nothing I've
tried so far has worked (trying boarders and shading, deleting and
backspacing from the text before/after the line).

especially the part about borders applied to multiple paragraphs.
