From: Jeff on 8 Nov 2009 09:11 Occasionally when I copy and paste some text from elsewhere into a Word document I find that whenever I click "enter" after the pasted text, I get a double line instead of a single line enter. The only way I can get a single line "enter" is by using Shift-Enter. I've looked in the paragraph codes and cannot see what to change to make the Enter key go back to its normal single line action. Can anyone help? Jeff
From: Stefan Blom on 8 Nov 2009 10:02 Make sure that Spacing before and after are both set to zero for the relevant paragraphs (or paragraph styles). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP <Jeff(a)couldbeinvalid.com> wrote in message news:%23AF5f1HYKHA.844(a)TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > Occasionally when I copy and paste some text from elsewhere into a Word > document I find that whenever I click "enter" after the pasted text, I get > a double line instead of a single line enter.

From: Terry Farrell on 8 Nov 2009 12:07 I agree with Stefan that this is most likely due to a partially corrupt, out-of-date or incompatible graphics driver, though it may be the printer driver too. Both Have effect on the way Word displays. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP <Jeff(a)couldbeinvalid.com> wrote in message news:#AF5f1HYKHA.844(a)TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > Occasionally when I copy and paste some text from elsewhere into a Word > document I find that whenever I click "enter" after the pasted text, I get > a double line instead of a single line enter.

From: Jeff on 8 Nov 2009 13:28 Thank you both. The pasted material had the spacing set to "Auto". When I changed it to 0 things corrected themselves. Thank you. I'm glad I finally asked about it.

I believe you posted in the wrong thread... Could this have been for the "Duplicating lines. Will not delete; ALL go away." thread in this newsgroup? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Terry Farrell" <terryfarrell(a)msn.com> wrote in message news:elyYBYJYKHA.408(a)TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... >I agree with Stefan that this is most likely due to a partially corrupt, >out-of-date or incompatible graphics driver, though it may be the printer >driver too.
