Remove Hard return from Word Doc

[hexOffender]

I need to remove a hard return that was placed on each line of a word doc.

Wgat code do you have so far?

But since you will be using word interop this probably is a question better asked in the microsoft office forum on this site.

hexOffender,

Try using the Selection object of Word Document e.g.

   With Selection.Find
      .Text = vbCrLf
      .Replacement.Text = String.Empty
      .Forward = True
      .Wrap = wdFindContinue
      .Format = False
      .MatchCase = False
      .MatchWholeWord = False
      .MatchWildcards = False
      .MatchSoundsLike = False
      .MatchAllWordForms = False
   End With

   Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll

I'm assuming that you have instantiated Word Application and Word Document objects successfully.

Hope it helps.

Actually I guess I wasnt very clear, i'm sorry.
I am taking txt files that have a hard return in them for each line, then I am dumping them to word. so im not even using Word Interop. Im just using a rtfBox on a form

That's why it is always good to shows us some code that you already have. I think you need something like this

Dim s as string
'fill string from txt file via streamreader
s.remove(controlchars.crlf)
