Default How do you change double spacing to single spacing?

Here is one way: In the Styles pane (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S), click the Manage
Styles button. In the dialog box, click the Set Defaults tab. Make sure to
set "Line spacing" to "Single" and "Paragraph Spacing Before/After" to zero.
If you want to transfer the setting to the attached template, select "New
documents based on this template" before clicking OK.

I delt with this issue before. Someone had showed me the steps in
changing
double space to a single space when typing a text.

The default normal style in Word 2007 has 10 points of 'space after'

and 1.15 line spacing. Apply instead the no-spacing paragraph style or
change the default style set to Word 2003.

It seems sometimes when I opened Word 2007, I find when typing a text
it is in double spacing. Did not do a thing to change it.

So how you change double spacing to single spacing?
