Gerald,

That is exactly what the spell checker does.  In a word like trans parent it
gives me parent.  <lol>  Maybe I'll be lucky and there will be a copy inn
the collection..  Thanks.

Sue,

I've validated two like that in the last week.  I also found words run
together in those same books, though that didn't occur as much as a space
showing up in the middle of a word.

You can run it through a spell checker.  This will fix most, if not all, of
the words.  It's possible though that both halves of the word may show up in
the spelling dictionary, though.  I found two instances where the word
"inside" had been broken into the words "in" and "side".

I got a book off the Step 1 page which, so far, seems to be okay with one
exception.  All through it there seems to be a space in the middle of
words..  Since the words are not the same, is reading all of it the only way
to correct these words?  Thanks.
