Default line spacing?

When i hit enter it seems as though it wants to skip two spaces instead of
one. I looked at the line spacing and it was set to multiple, so i changed it
to single...and it still jumps a space. Is thereany other setting or known
reason why this would be doing this?

Default line spacing?

The space you get when you press Enter (creating a new paragraph) is
determined by the Spacing Before/After setting, not the line spacing.

Have you looked at the Spacing before / Spacing after settings for the
particular paragraph style?

Change spacing after to 0 points. If you need more help, please say
which version of Word you have.
