Does anyone know how to keep two words together so that they don't separate
over two lines of text? For example, I would want Ms. Rose to never have the
Ms. on one line, and Rose on the next. I have tried keep with next under
paragraph formatting and I have tried 'keep lines together' and neither of
them work. Any help is appreciated!

Thanks!
Carla

Use a non-breaking space betwen them. Instead of pressing the spacebar
alone, press and hold Ctrl+Alt and then press the spacebar and then release
all three.

Ctrl+Shift+Spacebar will give you the nonbreaking space you need.
