Mine doesn't either. Find & Replace works great, though. Just find every double space and replace it with a single space and you're good to go.

And like I said, it's actually not as hard as you'd think to break the habit. (I had it drilled into me as well.) :mrgreen:

Maybe it's a newer version of Word than I had. I don't know. This computer is two and a half years old and I've been using Open Office on it so I have no idea what they did to Word since I installed it on the last one. All I know is that I got the green line on my old computer, and it happens on the computers at school, with no adjustment from me. :dontknow
