or, if you're on a more user friendly opperating system that's actually compatible with something fairly often, you might try doing it the hard way.

Arrow keys and the delete button.

In MS Word,

File | Open. Open your file.

Edit | Replace. For the Find What text, enter "^p". That's the special code for a paragraph mark. Don't enter anything in the Replace With text.

Replace All.

File | Save As.

I find your definition of "more user firendly" odd. You'd find it easier to press "end, delete" a thousand times in repetition than to type ":%s/\n/ /g" in vi and have the whole thing done for you?

Would that actually remove all the CRs, or just the paragraphs?

 
If you have access to perl I would do it like this:

perl -pi.bak -e 's/\r//g' filename

It will remove all carriage returns in the file (assuming that is really what you want to do) and make a copy of the oldfile in filename.bak.
