Default text with line break at end is not justified correctly

Hi.

I have certain paragraphs of a document that are justified. I need to be
able to add line breaks into these justified paragraphs. When I do this the
line that preceeds the line break ends up looking like it has the
'Distributed' allignment rather than looking Justified. This is a big problem
when there are only a few words on the line as they get spaced right across
the page.

Is this a bug in Word? Is there any way I can get the whole paragraph to
look Justified? (Due to inline protection within custom xml nodes I cannot
simply use separate paragraphs)

thanks

Simon

Please note that I cant use Tab then Line Break as the document protection
prevents inserting tabs

If you can't insert a tab (even a Ctrl+Tab?), then the only recourse is to
modify the Compatibility Options: "Don't expand character spaces on the line
ending Shift-Return."
