Robert,
Asuming this is word... Do a Ctrl H or Edit/Replace
In the Look for box type *L*
Move the cursor to the replace box
Click on More
Select the Carraige return
Click replace all
Forgive me if this isn't exactly correct because I'm using a Dutch
copy of word but I'm sure you can work it out.
Regards
Lisa
