I'm editing someone else's bibliography in Word 2010.

The author made hanging indents by putting paragraph marks after each line and putting tabs at the start of a new line.

I needed to reformat this to make each citation a proper paragraph, each with a hanging indent.

I found each instance of a paragraph mark followed by a tab and deleted them both (mark and tab).

However, I still can't get the individual lines of each citation to merge into a proper paragraph. (Thus the citations do not have hanging indents.)

If I click on a citation twice, only part of it (usually only one line) is selected.

If I select the whole citation and try to adjust the margins with the ruler, the citation still behaves as if it were two or more paragraphs.

When I click on "show paragraph marks," the graphs look OK. I do not see any stray paragraph marks, tabs, or strange returns.

How do I merge these stubborn lines into a single graph? Thanks...
