Autotext entry is taking the cursor to next line/new line

Hello Stefan, to include the paragraph formatting/style we are including the Pilcrow (Paragraph Mark) with the autotext, but as we are doing it, when the autotext is inserted it's also inserting a hard return in the end. Promoting us to press backspace every time we enter that autotext. I am still looking for a solution for this occurrence.

I'm afraid that there is no fix for this. :-(

I initially thought that using the Building Block/AutoText option to insert content into a new paragraph would help, but it doesn't, because making use of that option doesn't force Word to include paragraph-level formatting (such as paragraph styles) with the AutoText entry. You simply need the paragraph mark (¶) to be included, and this will make the insertion point move a paragraph down the page.
