reformatting old emails
I am using Windws XP.
I often need to save emails as Word documents. The emails have less words per line than I want . What steps do need to take after I copy and paste an email into Word so that there are more words per line. (I have been going to the end of a line, hitting delete then hitting enter to create a news pace between the two words.) I know there must be a simple way to do this. Please Help! |

Turn your show/hide button on:
http://www.officearticles.com/word/s...osoft_word.htm If the character at the end is a "backwards P", then use ^p in Find. If the character at the end is a left-pointing arrow, then use ^l in Find. Hit Ctrl+H. In the Find what box, place one of the characters above. In the Replace with box, type a space. Hit Replace all. ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com www.MyExpertsOnline.com "myartistry" wrote in message ... I am using Windws XP. I often need to save emails as Word documents.
