  Is there a way in the find and change dialog box, to delete blank lines?

  Yes. Use GREP!
  
  (The regular Search-and-Replace will mess up your paragraph styles, because it will temporarily merge two paragraph into one, before inserting a paragraph return again.)
  
  Search for this:
  
  (?<=r)r+
  
  and replace with nothing-at-all.
