Why are some of my replies double spaced? I am using Word as an editor. When
I check the format options in the reply they say single space but body of
reply is still double spaced. I am using Outlook 2003, SP2.

Do you press Enter at the end of each line? If so, don't. Let the editor
wrap for you.

Thanks I'll try that but how do I start a new paragraph without hitting enter?

To start a new paragraph... DO HIT ENTER.

Otherwise don't hit it.

That's the point. Enter starts a new paragraph and generates extra space
(<p> in HTML). If you press Enter at the end of every line, you're
generating a new paragraph for every line.
