Does Word keep paragraph spacing settings?
When setting the paragraph settings in Word, does it keep the settings or
does it default to another? |

When you change paragraph or font format settings, the settings are retained
for text you subsequently create following the existing text. That is, if you change paragraph format and press Enter, the new paragraph you create will have the same settings as the previous one, and this will continue until you change again. But if you want to apply formatting changes to existing text, you must select it first. Much the best way to apply formatting to paragraphs is with paragraph styles. -- Suzanne S.

Guessing=20 -- you mean "space before/after", line spacing, or something like that,=20 -- you have applied that manually, -- you mean "keep the setting when I hit Return": The setting will be kept unless another style is applied (because the = "Style for the following paragraph" is set to a different style). 99.9% of the time, it's not necessary to apply any kind of formatting = manually... so there's no need to worry.
