Default How can I delete a line created with Shift+underscore?

I can no longer select this line, so how can I delete it. When I search help
for how to delete a "rule," it brings up everything BUT what I'm talking
about.

I'm using Office 2007, and ever since it was installed, I can't find
anything and stuff happens that makes NO sense at all. How and why did that
simple underline become some permanent fixture in teh email I'de REALLY LIKE
TO SEND, NOW.

That line is actually a "Border Line". Try the following:

- Select eveything above and below the line
- Select the FORMAT TEXT tab
- In the "Paragraph" section
- Click on the triangle next to the grid looking icon
- Select NO BORDER

It's only useless because you don't know what to search for, which isn't
your fault.

That auto-correct turns the underscore into a border line.

So, put the cursor above the line so that you'd type right on top of it,
go to Format Text and in the Paragraph part of the ribbon, drop down the
border dropdown and select No border.
