Hi Sue,
this is the Messenger for Mac newsgroup, and double-spacing is not available
in Messenger. I assume you mean the new default settings in Word 2008, so
here's an explanation coming from Daiya Mitchell in
microsoft.public.mac.office.word:
> It's not actually double-spacing that is the problem. Word changed the
> default to add more space between paragraphs, so that each paragraph
[quoted text clipped - 12 lines]
> Format menu in the bottom of the dialog--select Paragraph from it, and
> change the Spacing: After setting from 10 to 0.
> How do I change from double spacing to single spacing?
