How do I get Word to stop putting extra spaces after a period whe.
When I type a document and my sentence happens to end at the left margin Word
oesn't adjust for that and starts my next sentence 2 spaces in from the left margin. If I delete those spaces and then later go back and change the document, Word doesn't remember I need 2 spaces after the period and I have to change it back. How do I get Word to automatically take off the spaces after a period at the left margin and automatically put spaces after a period when they are not at the left margin? |

trailing spaces to next line" box | OK.
