Dear Paul:

Did you make a lot of tables and then type text in the cells?

If you made tables, click on Table > Select > Table
That selects the entire table.  It turns black.
Then click on Format > Borders and Shading.
The Borders and Shading dialogue box appears.
Make sure the Borders tab is showing.
On the right side of the box, you will see a square with lines in it.
Just above that box it says:  "Preview.  Click on diagram below or use
buttons to apply borders"
Click on the lines in the Preview box to make all the lines go away.
Click on OK.
The black that the table turned, goes away.
Now, when you look at the document on the computer, you will see FAINT
lines.  That just tells you that a table is there.  When you PRINT the
document, the lines will not print.

Does that help?

I used an OCR program to scan and old article of mine.
I then saved it in Word doc file formate. I loaded it into
word and this is how it came out??? They are not tables or at least
they should not be tables. I am looking for plain text.
