If you turn on the display of paragraph marks by clicking on the ¶ button,
you will probably only see one dot between each word meaning that there is
only one space between each word. What appears to be additional spaces, but
is not multiple spaces, is caused by the text being justified as has been
mentioned earlier in this thread.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that you have to check "Use wildcards" in the

all this achieves is to shift the spaces around, I still have numerous
multiple spaces but in a different arrangement
