Default Text expands to fill line.


In a section of my document that uses outline style bulleting some of
the lines expand to fill the whole line. If I delete a major portion
of the text the remainder is expanded to stretch to both margins. I
did not choose this setting and would like to turn it off.

thanx,

The paragraph formatting has been set to JUSTIFY. Change it the left
justification.

The line is in a bullet outline section and is item 6 l (ell). When I
select the text and then left justification it compresses to the right
and becomes part of item 6 k. So I introduce a new line in 6K and back
tab to restore 6 l and now I am back to the justified formatting
problem.
