line spacing in Word 7 - GRACE


Posted: Nov 22, 2013

I have not typed in Word 7 in several months.   I have a job now and when I type in Word I get a space and a half when I hit enter.  I have changed the paragraph to single, removed lines before and after paragraph, but it still does that.   Any advice??

Go up to Styles - Then choose "no spacing"

[ In Reply To ..]
I have Word 2013, and this is how I change my spacing. I'm pretty sure 2007 has something very similar. You go up to the top where you see "styles." Then choose "no spacing" or "2003 style." See if that works.
