Mystery...Mystery in a paragraph.

[Brian Lucas]

Hi guys!

I'm working on a book in Publisher, and I've encountered a real mystery. There's a paragraph that when placed, it divides words with hyphen leaving a blank space, and when I try to delete the hyphen, it also deletes the word before it. This is driving me crazy. I have tried everything, and there's no way I can fix this. Any idea why is this happening?

Thanks

Brian

Is it a real hyphen, or one inserted by the software when a  word breaks? Is this aberrant paragraph picking up formatting from another program? Are you typing it, or copying and pasting?

It's a docx (Word document). I've done anything with that paragraph. I even typed it into Publisher and as soon as it gets to a certain point it stars behaving weird, leaving huge empty space and it doesn't let me separate words that it merges.

UPDATE:

Never mind. I discovered a invisible photo holder that I have placed there before. I deleted it, and BINGO! Problem solved. My bad.

Thanks for the solution, this might actually help another post.
