When using line numbering it counts both the space and the text.
How do I get Word 2007 to only count the lines with text and not the space
with no text? |

It counts only lines in paragraphs. If you don't want a line counted, use
Space Before/After instead of an empty paragraph. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "John" wrote in message ... How do I get Word 2007 to only count the lines with text and not the space with no text? |

When you press Enter twice to insert a "blank line," you are inserting an
empty paragraph. If you display nonprinting characters (Ctrl+* or click on the Show/Hide ΒΆ button), you will see that the "blank line" Word is numbering contains a paragraph mark. Instead of pressing Enter twice, you can easily insert 12 pts Space Before by pressing Ctrl+0 (zero). Or you can go to Format | Paragraph and add the specific amount of Space Before or Space After that you prefer. Or, instead of using the Normal style, you can use the built-in Body Text style, which by default has 6 pts Space After. -- Suzanne S.
