formating headings in Word 2007 kwdight 11/2/2008 5:59:00 AM When trying to write a reurn address in my letter, I have found that regardless of how I have the spacing set (mine is set to single space) the lines between the name, street address, city/state, etc seemed to be double spaced. If I type full sentences and the line wraps it is then single spaced. Any suggestions of how to recitify this problem will be greatly appreciated. I did notice that when I brought in a "Template" the formatting seemed fine. -- Kenneth Dight

Re: formating headings in Word 2007 "Suzanne S. Barnhill" <sbarnhill[ at ]mvps.org> 11/2/2008 1:29:13 PM Use a line break (Shift+Enter) between lines instead of a paragraph break. As Graham points out, the default paragraph spacing in Word 2007 is 1.15 lines, but there is 10 pts Space After, which gives the appearance of double spacing if every line is a separate paragraph. -- Suzanne S.

Re: formating headings in Word 2007 Col Gregg 11/3/2008 7:04:05 PM Is there a way to make "set to 0" the default for all documents/entries?

Re: formating headings in Word 2007 "Jay Freedman" <jay.freedman[ at ]verizon.net> 11/3/2008 7:14:14 PM Yes, you can. You need to modify the Document Defaults.
