Microsoft word wrap?>

[Sam Cousins]

My girlfriends having a problem with word. When she gets
to the end of a line of text towards the end of the page
and is only halfway through a word, it will not move the
entire word to the next line. It just carries on the word
much like when you are text writing and you continue the
word with a hyphen. eg ho-mosapien.

does anyone know how to turn this feature off>?

Try Format/Paragraph and tick "Don't hyphenate" on the
Line and Page Breaks tab.

This is usually a symptom of document corruption. See

If automatic hyphenation has been turned on, Word
automatically inserts hyphens where they are needed in
the document.

To access this feature, on the Tools menu, point to
Language, and then click Hyphenation. Clear the
Automatically hyphenate document check box.
