Is there a way to remove every hard return from a document in Word (2007)?

I have 250 pages of genetic code, and the hard returns in it are preventing another program from analyzing it. How can I get them all out without having to go through it line by line?

Update:

Yes! I was in that find and replace box. Sadly ^r isn't it and I still can't figure it out.

    Here's how to get to the special codes in Find and Replace:

    1. Click the More button.

    2. Click the Special button.

    Hope that helps.

    Ctrl-H. Replace all occurrences of hard return (I think that's ^r, but check - they're listed) with a blank box (leave the "replace with" box blank).
