G'day!

I have got a Word document that I have opened in both version of Word 2003 and 
2007. In Word 2007, I saved the document as a 2003 compatible document so no 
worries there... but when I opened it in either version after that, the 
document suddenly acquired a line across the base of the footer area in the 
document. It resides neither in the footer nor in the document. I am unable to 
select it or highlight it, nor is there a hidden table all the rest..

This unprofessional looking document from the company's technical writer has to 
be presented to management soonish and try as I might I am unable to correct 
this problem, even when investigating every footer in every section of the 
document, and ensuring that link to previous is disabled.

Any clues, suggestions etc.. (without telling me  to bin this lovely 31 page 
document :)).

Thanks,
Nikki
