Hi Mickey and others: Here are a couple of recommendations: 1. Are you trying to change spacing for the whole document? If not, you should try selecting the text you want to format. You can do this by hitting shift+down arrow to select individual lines or CTRL+shift+end to select from the cursor to the end of the document. You could try changing your spacing again after selecting the text you want to format. 2. You could try changing the spacing in just one keystroke. You could try pressing CTRL+2 for double-spacing and CTRL+1 for single spacing. I hope this helps.

Greetings Fellow Listers: I'm running Jaws 5 with Microsoft Word from Office 2002; In a machine I built. Problem is this: When I prepare a document in Word and want to change the line spacing, I can not get the change or desired selection to be accepted. I go in to the menu of paragraphs, then tab down to line spacing, then down to say 1.5 lines or double, touch space bar on my choice and tab over to OK and hit enter; But it always prints as a single line document. I'm not much of a word processing expert, so any help should be in baby steps for a first grader; Please! Regards of, MICKEY Yes that's M I C K E Y for my name is the same as the Mouse! Although our names are the same, our ears are not! Ha Ha Ha! May our GOD Bless all of us always! -- To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
