One small problem
In word 2007, while generating a letter, I want:
Ajax Company 123 Main Street Anytown, XX 12345 Instead I get Ajax Company 123 Main Street Anytown, XX 12345 It seems to me that when I do a return, Word thinks I want a new paragraph and inserts an extra line....TIA |

See the replies to the thread posted yesterday by RScotti entitled: Can't get rid of double space Why MS set this as the default is a mystery to many  Another option worth considering is to use Shift+Enter to create the line breaks in your address block. That way the whole thing is treated as a single paragraph. -- HTH |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "Mike G" wrote in message ...

To add to what Bob said, when you press Enter you *are* beginning a new
paragraph, whether you mean to or not. Pressing Shift+Enter inserts a line break, which starts a new line without starting a new paragraph. -- Suzanne S.

Yes...I understand. I guess you can have a one line paragraph, or for that
matter one word or letter. Now that I think about it more, Word is inserting an extra line in addition to starting new paragraph and thus the problem in my case of doing a TO: FROM: type letter. Word 2000 on my laptop does not do this. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... To add to what Bob said, when you press Enter you *are* beginning a new paragraph, whether you mean to or not.

Word does not insert "an extra line." It is inserting a *line space* (more
or less) because the default Normal style is now defined as having 10 pts Space After. -- Suzanne S.
