Microsoft Word - want to turn off automatic paragraphing

[ken quirici]

Hi,

I have Microsoft Word 2003 running on Windows XP.

I'd like to turn off automatic paragraphing completely. I want to be
in
complete manual control of paragraphing.

I've turned off virtually every automatic formatting option but
there's still
this automatic paragraphing that's a real annoyance. Basically Word is
automatically adding an extra line-feed after a particular line in my
document, and I just want one blank line between the two lines. I can
find no way to get rid of the extrra blank line. I assume it's a
paragraphing
issue.

Thanks.

Ken

Got it - set spacing for paragraphs to one line.

Spoke too soon. It reverts to double-spacing after one single-spaced
paragraph
(which in my case is one line).

Sounds like a style issue, not a paragraph issue. Visit: Format/Styles...
