Folks,
These 2 are the same solution.
It works fine when a 'find and replace' is preformed on a single
paragraph mark, i.e. hard return, appears as ¶,is replaced with
anything else.
I have a similar problem.
I sometimes, especially when copying and pasting text from a WEB page,
find 2 hard returns one after another.
How can I search for double hard returns, ¶¶, and replace them with
single hard returns, ¶.

Tick "Regular expressions" in "Search and replace" dialog. Search for $,
replace with space.
In your case replace with \t

Im' using Version: 6.4.1.1 on linux opensuse:
In a writer document I woule like to find paragraph breaks (A
paragraph
break that can be entered with the Enter or Return key )with a tab
so following the instructions here
file:///usr/lib64/libreoffice/help/en-US/text/shared/01/02100001.html?&DbPAR=WRITER&System=UNIX
I should perform a find/replace:
in find \n and in replace \t
or if it doesnt works
in find \n and in replace \n and then in find \n and in replace \t
checking the regular expression box (only that one)
but it doesn't work, writer gives me the "search key not found"
how can I solve??
