How to remove line breaks in odt paragraphs?

[joe at actionline.com]

Brian, I had actually tried everything that you suggested
and no joy.  It is line breaks (\n) rather than paragraph
end that I am trying to get, because I want the paragraph
ends/breaks to remain.  Even so, I did try the paragraph
end ($) and that does not work either.
