when I hit "enter," it won't single-space
I am typing a document on Word 2003. The spacing is set to single space. When
I get to the end of a line and the word naturally goes past the line, it properly drops down a single space. Howeverf, when I hit "enter" at the end of a line, it double spaces, and I can't get it to single-space. This just started happening. I've checked the format and rebooted, all to no avail. Any suggestions? |

Go to Format | Paragraph and check the Space Before and Space After sections
of the dialogue box. One of these is probably set to leave 6pt or 12 pt of space. They should both be 0 pts . Hope this sorts your problem out. -- Rae Drysdale "jonathanmenn" wrote: I am typing a document on Word 2003. The spacing is set to single space.

Also check your Style. This is in the menus but its easiest to look at the
left-hand side of the Formatting toolbar. Make sure the cursor is at a point in the document where you are experiencing trouble. Generally the Style will be set to €śNormal€ť but if it says €śNormal (Web)€ť you are likely to experience the kind of problem you describe. If necessary select the text which is misbehaving and set it to the correct style.
