G'day KlikThis ,

You'd have to try connecting each single letter fragment to the
preceding block, check for a spelling error, then the succeeding
block, and check for a spelling error

This would take care of a fair percentage.

Okay, here's the problem:
I have some books that are in text format & I want to edit them, so
I open the txt file using MS Word. When its open the format is all
over the place...

Example:
Th is f ile is g oing
to
be f ixed.

Almost every other word has a space in odd places within the word,
and every sentence has a sentence that is fragmented & continued on
the next line.

So my question is...Is there any way to correct this, without having
to go through every word to get ride of the spaces & without having
to backspace all the time.

I want this:

Example:
Th is f ile is g oing
to
be f ixed.

To look like this:

Example:
This file is going to be fixed.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanx
