I got into a situation where it seems like there is no way forward. 
[![enter image description here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/PFrrh.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/PFrrh.png)

After : there is paragraph break which I want to remove but when I search using :$, it searches just fine but no matter what I put in replace box, it doesn't remove the paragraph break.

I found that When I search :$ then it will search a paragraph break after : but won't remove the paragraph mark.
[Tabs, newlines, paragraphs \t \n $](https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/How_Tos/Regular_Expressions_in_Writer#Tabs.2C_newlines.2C_paragraphs_.5Ct_.5Cn_.24)

So any alternative to this. I tried with Alt Search as well but it won't let me do the thing either.
