Hi all,

I have been searching for a solution to no avail and then 'BINGO' I had a brainwave... what if it was something to do with how the picture is positioned?

So I changed the picture position of the picture in the format tab and hey presto it disappeared. The picture has to be placed in front of the text.

How to do this:

1. Select picture(click on it).
2. Click on the format tab.
3. Navigate to the arrange section and select the 'position' icon. This is object position.
4. Click on it and then select 'more layout options'.
5. Now click on the option 'In front of text'.

And now your black line disappears.

Pheeeew! Hope that helps folks.
