Word should let me insert a conditional line break in a word.
WordPerfect has a "hyphenation soft return" which allows a conditional line
break in a word without a hyphen. This is useful, for example, when you have a long URL in a sentence, and you don't want the entire URL moved to a new line leaving a lot of white space on the previous line. In WordPerfect, you can insert "hyphenation soft returns" after the slashes, so the program will know to break the URL there if necessary, but without inserting a hyphen at the break. Does Word have the equivalent? If not, it should. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
