If he's using word, he doesn't have to do anything except keep typing. It
will automatically wrap to the next line. I think the teacher may have said
they should not (as opposed to could not) use the enter at the end of each
line.

You and your son might find this basic introduction to Word helpful:
http://shaunakelly.com/word/concepts...ion/index.html

It discusses some of the differences between Word and a typewriter--not
hitting enter at the end of each line is the biggest one, but there are
more.
