Unhappy How to remove a new line from a selection only

Hello , I wanted to know how i can remove a new line from a selection and replace it with a space ? I know I could do find and replace but that feature only works for above and below text. It does not handle seclections. It handles all the content of the page. So if i selected something like this

Hello,
World.


How are you.

I would like it to be "Hello World. How are you"

A line break is ^l, a paragraph break is ^p.

The replace function does indeed work on selections? After processing the selection it will give you an option to process the rest of the document. You can respond No!
