Ann,

Based on the explanation quoted below, I think the [-] code (assisted hyphen) 
will do what you want.

abc[-]def -- Assisted-hyphenation code. This code tells the formatter that, if 
necessary, the word may be broken at that point to hyphenate at the end of
line. This code is not recommended for frequent use, as it must not be used in 
the midst of or abutting contractions affected by hyphenation. However,
it can be useful for better format treatment in the case of exceedingly long 
words.

Steve

Is it possible to tell Duxbury to hyphenate words appropriately rather than 
moving the entire word to the next line?
