Wouldn't you have to do it multiple times until you didn't find 2 adjacent
spaces. Lets say you had 3 spaces between words (accidently, of course),
scanning and replacing 1 time would leave you with 2 spaces where there were
3 or 3 spaces were there were 4, etc. until you didn't find 2 adjacent spaces
anymore.

You can use Find/Replace. Assuming you never want two spaces to occur, you
can change " " to " " (the first is two spaces, the second is a single
space), and tell the Replace dialog to Replace All.

If there are times when you'd like two spaces, then you'd have to work out
the circumstances, and it's possible that a Wildcard Find/Replace could do
the job.

Is there a way to remove extra spaces between words so there is only one
space between them
