Hello,

I can't remove a line made of dashes (a border), I've tried everything but nothing works, I can select this line and click on format no border, but it doesn't work, it's still there... I have Word 2008.
Thank you in advance for your replies.

    Re,

    As for me, I believe we'll be searching for a long time without seeing your file.
    If it's not confidential, or erase any confidential parts and post your file so we can see it.

    To attach your file
    1) Go to https://www.cjoint.com/
    2) Click on [Browse] to select your file (max 15 MB)
    3) Scroll down to click the blue button [Create the Cjoint link]
    4) After a few seconds, the second page will display with the link in bold; right-click on it and choose "Copy link"
    5) Go back to your discussion on CCM, and in your message, click "Paste".

      Re,

      we don’t see anything that could help us, display the return paragraphs then click on the line and take a screenshot to see.

      What feedback paragraphs? I don’t know what you’re talking about.

      Sorry for the delay, I tried to send you my file but "how does it work" tells me that I can only send photos... But this line is simply a line of dashes that, when you press the shift key at the same time and then enter, creates a "border".

    Try selecting the lines that frame the bar, not just the bar itself.

      Where does this bar of dashes come from?

      I think you need to press shift and hyphen at the same time and it makes a long line (you have to press the hyphen several times).

    Hello,

    wouldn't it be points inline set on a tabulation?
    or maybe a style
    the best would be to have your file or a good screenshot to try to see;

      It's a line of dashes, you have to press shift and several dashes at the same time, and it makes a line that is called "border". It takes up the whole page...

      I would simply have copied the content and pasted it into a new document.
