Extra space above and below text

[billybob]

....which I don't want. How do I get rid of it? The extra space above and
below the text is verified by highlighting the text. Seems that I used to
know how to do this, but my memory fails me.

Billybob,
Probable increased the space before and after your paragraphs. Choose
Format - paragraph - and put 0 in the space before and after.
Or if you want to be quick, press CTRL+Q, but be aware that this will
eliminate all other paragraph formatting (e.g. indents and such) as well.

Thanks for the response, Luc! That was the 1st thing that I tried and
nothing happened. I know that I have eliminated the extra space several
times in the past, but I just can't remember how I did it. Nothing else
seems to have been affected. It happens mostly with titles or headers. Any
other ideas?

Billybob,
First check your formatting with the Taskpane show formatting (not sure
about the words as I have the Dutch version here). Once activated you should
see the formatting of text / paragraph / section you click in. Maybe there
is something there that might bring enlightenment.

Second, is the line spacing being set to a higher level that could affect
even titles with one line.

Third have you checked your AutoCorrection options. AutoFormat as you type -
in the second section make sure the last box is unchecked - in the third
section the same.

Sorry if I can't give you the exact words I am translating as I type it.

Good luck

Luc

Thanks Luc! I'll check it out!

Billybob,
Have you also tried Ctrl+shift+n which resets to the normal paragraph style?
