Hi Joe.
In MS Word, under the Format menu, there is an option to "reveal formatting".

In the Find menu, control-f, first choose "more", then tab until you come
to "special".  Once you land on Special, arrow down, and you will get a
list of all kinds of special characters you can find, and their symbols. 
^l will find manual line breaks.  ^m will find page breaks.
HTH.
