Default Word 2000 Split sentences

It sounds as if you may have had a space in your "Replace with" box, though
replacing the paragraph mark with a space should accomplish much the same
thing.

A document that is created as "text" will have a paragraph break at the end
of each line.

Yes,I did as you said ,without any response. But experimenting,On the
"replace' I pressed the delete key, which of course deleted all the
paragraph
divisions leaving a continuous document with all the punctuation retained
but
without any paragraphs. But tell me how is it possible with what
formating
command to introduce all these unwanted paragraphs resulting in split
sentences? I have tried with a document, and it only possible if you
introduce these paragraphs deliberately by hand, or by making a macro.

Did you use Find and Replace to replace ^p with nothing or a space?

Thank you, your link was very informative,and I see there is a
paragraph
sign
^ at the end of every half sentence, but I cannot reformat to get rid
of
these paragraph breaks.

I have downloaded documents from Gutenberg onto my browser, and then
pasted
them onto Word 2000. Then the sentences are split as this:-
---------------------------------
---------------
---------------------------------
---------------
How can I correct this, as I need to convert to Microsoft Reader
using
the
"read" facility?
