Leonard, I assume this procedure is no different from Word 2010, which I use. To eliminate blank lines, I use the search and replace function, control-h, with more than one instance of ^p for the search term and possibly nothing in the replace field. ^p is the Word symbol for paragraph. This gets tricky because you might not want to eliminate every example of an extra line. Also, when you search for ^p^p (two paragraph signs), you might not pick up all the extra lines because there's a space in-between. So I first search for the paragraph sign and space and replace each instance with a paragraph sign absent the space. Only then do I search and replace for the ^p^p term. I could go on about this and send you right to sleep, but this general concept works for me.
