Default Import Text from File - Line Spacing


hi guys, is there some option to "Import Text from File" somewhere ?
[like the "Import Picture"]. "Copying" originally single-spaced docs,
and Pasting into another, often jumps to Double-spacing, and cant get
rid of it; then Both sections report themselves "single-spaced" !
annoying. anyone got a clue ? thank you.

Default Import Text from File - Line Spacing

See http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styl...xtChanges.html. If
you're pasting into Word 2007, the Normal style has 1.15-line spacing and 10
pts Spacing After.
