Thank you again to all who volunteered to assist on this issue.
Here is an update on what I found:
Changing the <PgfLocked Yes> to <PgfLocked No> allowed me to then change the tag applied to the paragraph to something that would not end up affecting the header.

My previous solution of deleting all the XML in the MIF file worked, but it was indeed overkill. I had forgotten that you cannot delete the last paragraph in an FM document anyway.

As always this is a wonderful group and I am thankful to all of you.

Subject: Last paragraph in FM file cannot be modified

FM8 running on Win XP.

On some files that were converted from MSWord by an intern last summer, I
have noticed that the last paragraph in the fm file cannot have its
properties modified nor can the paragraph be deleted. By modifing properties
I mean that I cannot change the tag name or any properties. It is like the
paragraph itself is locked.
Unfornately the properties of the tag are causing other issues in the
document dealing with header and footers. 
All I really want to do is to delete the paragraph, that would solve the
problem, but it cannot be deleted. Other parts of the document can be easily
edited without issue, it is just the very last paragraph. The other odd
behavior I see is that being the last paragraph it is not showing the
section sign text symbol like I have seen in every other Framemaker file.
I have tried Wash via MIF with no success. 
Does anyone have suggestions as to how this might have happened or how I can
go about fixing it?
Thanks,
Roy
