What is this?

[Guest]

I have one line of text with a line under it that is positioned along the
long side of my 8-1/2 x 11" document in certain sections, where that text is
now parallel to the 11" side of the paper. I can't grab it, I can't see it
unless my background is blue. What is this? I've tried the drawing select
objects button without success, I've looked under the embedded objects link
and it's not listed there.

Perhaps it is showing that changes were tracked in your document. Is your
Reviewing toolbar showing? Try using that and see what happens.

Open the Header pane and then try to select the text. It's probably in a
text box that's anchored in the headers of those sections. If so, you'll
have to visit each section's header separately to remove the text boxes
(assuming Same As Previous is turned off for those headers).
