Spacing Problem

I have a long text I wrote some time ago in Word.

Today, I had to go back and insert several paragraphs, which I did.

Then, when I went to "close up" the paragraphs (so that the last line
of one was followed by the first line of the next), Word will not let
me do it. The cursor jumps from the last character of paragraph one,
skipping a line, to the first character of paragraph two.

I tried closing them up with delete, then opening them with the enter
button, but it still creates a blank line between the paragraphs.

How can I close them up? MVPs?
 
Go to Format | Paragraph and make sure that both Spacing Before and Spacing
After are set to 0 for both paragraphs.
