I've got a years worth of self-sent emails that I'm endeavoring to copy into
a single WordPerfect 8 document. I've made the transfer of the text, but
the lines are all broken with a Line Break somewhere from one-half to
two-thirds of the way into the available WordPerfect line. In other words,
the transferred printed lines end quite a bit before the right-hand margin.
Doing a Find-and-Replace using the Line Break code and replacing it with a
space accomplishes the task on a line-by-line basis. But this is a 600-page
document, and line-by-line is taking far, far too much time. I can't do a
Replace All, because that would eliminate my paragraphs. Is there another
method by which I can expand the text to fill the WordPerfect margins that
neither takes so long nor eliminates my paragraphing line breaks?
