UNWANTED CARRIAGE RETURN -INTERNET ADDRESS

Dear users,

When I write a long internet address in Word after regular text, I've
noticed that probably( I think) in order to avoid fragmenting, Word places a
carriage return.
Let me give you the example:
Let's say I want to print:
Please refer to
https://www.microsoft.com/office/com...&lang=en&cr=US

It automatically prints the following:
Please refer to
https://www.microsoft.com/office/com...lang=en&cr=US\
Note that what happens is that the internet address starting with https;//
will jumpo to the next line and there is NO WAY I can print it with out this
carriage return.
Please advice on how to print on a continuous line.

Thanks

Word will always break before a word that is too long to fit on a given
line. Your URL is too long to fit. You can insert a space or a No-Width
Optional Break somewhere in the URL to allow it to break naturally. As long
as the break occurs only in the display text and not in the underlying
HYPERLINK field code, the link will still work.

Thanks for your reply.
It did the same thing when posting. I wanted the URL address to continue on
the same line after "Please refer to".
Could you elaborate on "You can insert a space or a No-Width

View the long URL the same as you would any long word. You have to divide it
to make it fit. You would do this in a word by inserting an optional hyphen.
In a URL, you don't want a hyphen. If I'm reasonably certain that editing is
complete, I'll usually just add a space, but if you use a No Width Optional
Break (find it on the Special Characters tab of Insert | Symbol), there
won't be a space if the URL doesn't actually break at that point. The usual
advice is to break *before* punctuation (slash or period) so that there will
be no question that the URL is all one piece (though most readers would know
that anyway).
