    If Copy the whole file into the Word Document in which paragraph ends with two or more paragraph marks :

    1. Then go to Edit Menu, choose Replace.

    2. In the Find What box, enter:

      Code:
      ([!^13])(^13)([!^13])
      
      In the Replace With box, enter:
      
      \1 \3
      
      Click the More.. button, and check “Use Wildcards”.
      
      Click Replace All and click OK when Word tells you it has done the replacement.
      
      This will remove any paragraph marks that are at the end of a line but within a paragraph.
