[mso] Re-formatting a Word paragraph

Is there an easy way to change the line lengths on text pasted into 
a Word document?  At times I copy text from an email message or 
other source, and save into a Word document, and at some point may 
want to print the document.  When the copied text has hard returns 
at the end of every line, and the line lengths are pretty short, it 
makes for a very long document.  I'd like to increase the length of 
the lines for a shorter printed document.

By easy I mean not having to go through and do this manually by 
deleting the hard returns <g>.

I would also like to add that I've been doing a lot of  lurking on 
this list since I signed up and have learned so much.  Even the 
discussions that slide into what amounts to a foreign language to 
me (the recent VBA stuff) are interesting. (Although a preview is 
coming - I'm taking Dian's Word 301 in January). I am continually 
amazed at the willingness of the group to help others solve problems.

Thanks to all!

Jan
