Need to remove a line that isn't a cell border

[msbytes]

I'm preparing a pretty long document - in column/table format but I don't think that's relevant here

Anyway, while I was doing it in draft sometimes I put a "line" after some text to show that it was different to what was above or below it.

I did the "line" by taking the "-" symbol and holding it for a while and then hitting "return" ....... and then a line was drawn that was almost across the width of the column - not quite the width so not like a "normal" border that you can use if you've set up your table this way.

Anyway, I'd like to remove the "lines" but it's proving to be impossible.



Everything I've tried won't work - what happens is

- the line remains
- if i delete the blanks hoping to delete it too then all it does is shift the line up or down.

Now not only can't i get rid of a line, but it's also now right on the border of a table cell so I can't even move the line "upwards" off the border because there's no "space" after the line to put the cursor.

Hope this makes sense - basically it's about how to remove a line that isn't a cell border

Thanks
