hi there, anyone can help me answer these 2 questions?

1. What string pattern can you use to find all actual paragraph
markers in the file, rather than the markers for the end of a file?

2. What string pattern can you use to find all the end of line markers(as opposed to paragraph)?

i'll appreciate it!

This might not be what you want but try going to tools options and ticking the all box in formatting marks under the view tab.

This turns on all the ¶ end of line markers.

It also says it turns on paragraph marks, but seeing as i dont use paragraphs, fuck know's what that looks like.

Not sure what your trying to do from there as they are not actual typed text its pure visual formatting.

Please explain..

I'm a WP operator and would love to help, but don't really understand what you're wanting to do.

What package are you using? I'm assuming Word. If so, you need to go to Find and Replace, click on "More" and then click on "Special", then "Paragraph Mark" or "Manual Line Break".

Does that help?

Assuming MS Word.

To find, or Find/Replace paragraph markers use "^p".

To find, or Find/Replace end of line markers use "^l" <- lowercase L

If you're looking for the spellchecker it's under Tools --> Spelling and Grammar. You can also press F7.
