atw: Re: Extra spacing after full stop

Hi Deborah (C).
To break your "habit" (AKA perfectly legitimate typing training) without having to do so:
Word (2003) Tools > Autocorrect Options? , then replace those double spaces with a single one on the fly. 

Problem solved.

Is the documentation produced by the company mainly in print or online? Extra spaces are automatically removed from web pages (unless you force it with a non-breaking space) which is great for this type of situation. The double spacers can keep doing it and the single spacers are happy.
I must confess I am a double spacer, although trying very hard not to be. It drives my boss nuts, but it is just how I learned to type. I have just gone back through this email and removed all the double spaces and have also set Word to do it for me. I still prefer the look of a double space but figure there isn't any point as most of my output is online. It is a very hard habit to break. I've been trying for 6 months now!
