Default Auto Correct -- wants to double space!

No, you are not understanding, but probably I am not being clear.

My pleading templates have a lot of styles, many of which are not used in
most pleadings. I do my formatting using styles. I seldom use normal style
to format anything. It is sort of there in the background and I mostly leave
it alone.

Suzanne is correct that a pleading caption would more often be an AutoText
entry. I have mine as tables, it allows precise positioning both vertically
and horizontally. A table can be saved as an AutoText entry and can contain
its own styles.

I would urge you to spend some time learning about styles before you spend
much time preparing templates. Otherwise, you'll find yourself fighting
against Word and having to go back and recreate most of those templates.

So I can't use "Normal" style. Like -- I make a style called
"Caption" and set it to be single-spaced. Then I set up my caption
within that style. Then I put it into autocorrect. But then -- all
my pleadings will need to have a line someplace that is set to the
"caption" style. Which means I need a different pleading template for
the first page and for the second page?

Am I understanding?

Use a style that is set for single spacing before your record your entry.
Note, the style must also be set for single spacing in the template for
your
pleadings.
