Default Dotted lines that I can't get rid of

Hi I am typing up an assignment and I have a number of dotted rows across my pages at different stages and I urgently need to get rid of them. If i try and click on them they come up with the little up and down arrow for moving lines but nothing to delete them. If I try to copy and paste parts of my assignment on to a fresh document more appear. Do you know what these are and how I can get rid of them please. This is a very important document Thank you.
I have a screen shot but can't seem to post it here.

OK I think this might work.
The lines are not just because of the indented paragraph. They appear in about 5 other places.
Thanks for any help.
