MS Office Forum / Word / General MS Word Questions / December 2003Why do I have to hit Enter twice?
Hi there, I've noticed with a document I'm working on that when I hit enter a the end of a paragraph the cursor only moves on one space. When continue typing, however, a new paragraph does start. Anyone know wh this happens and how to correct it? Thanks, Graha Graham, It is a funtion of your paragraph style spacing before or after. You will need to modify your paragraph style.

How you do this depends somewhat on your version of Word. For more information about styles (and much more) see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/index.html.

I don't believe any of the previous answers to this question actually address the problem, which, if I understand it correctly, is that Enter is not producing a new line/paragraph but only a space (as if it were the Spacebar). I'm wondering if this could be the effect of some international keyboard layout of Accessibility setting. It certainly sounds very bizarre, but it does sound reminiscent of the "dead keys" in international keyboard layouts, in which certain keys are "setup keys" for accented characters and don't produce a character until the character to be accented is pressed. -- Suzanne S.

To input the @ or the quotation mark, it was necessary to press @ or " followed by a space. A veritable pain, I can tell you!
