Default How to prevent unwanted double-spacing?

Use a line break (Shift+Enter) instead of a paragraph break (Enter) in
address blocks.

I have just started using Word 2007 with Windows 7. Whenever I hit the
Enter
key to go to the next line (for example when typing an address) the cursor
skips a line, making the address (for example) double-spaced. (However,
when
typing the rest of the document it comes out single-spaced, as I want.) I
have tried everything I can think of to stop this happenening and would
appreciate someone's help!

Thanks.
