Default Non Breaking spaces

Hi all Helpers

I would like to be able to type the word "La Trobe" and ensure Word doesn't
separate it over 2 lines.

Thanks Robyn

Hi Greg, Thanks heaps for your response - it worked.
do you know if I save this to eg auto correct???????, so that I don't have
to do this manually every time I type this word.

AutoCorrect won't do it because the first word is only two characters. You
could, though, replace latrobe with what you want, including the hard space.

Sure,

Type it out then select it. Open the AutoCorrect Options menu and you will
see La Trobe in the "with" window "Plain Text." Type your autocorrect tip
(e.g. latr) in the replace window and click ok.

Now type latr in the document and it will autocorrect to La Trobe with the
none breaking space.
You could also use AUTOTEXT
