Line spacing disorder
"Ben Stevenson" <casiopie963[ at ]hotmail.com> 29.08.2006 08:24:43
I have XP Home and XP Office.

Nowadays the single line spacing between lines that I always have sometimes
goes to double line spacing when I cut/copy and paste some text on to my
word documents.At other times it is the original single line spacing when I
copy and paste.
How can I fix the problem? I want only the single line spacing.
TIA

This sounds like the style with which the copied text is formatted is present
in the target document, and that the definition in that document is for
double-spacing. In Word XP (2002), if the "Paste Options" button is activated
and working, when you paste you should see an icon at the bottom-right corner
of the text you pasted. Click the dropdown arrow and you'll see selections
that let you control the formatting. You'd want to keep the original
formatting.

The option to enable/disable this button is in Tools/Options/Edit.
