I have inserted text into my newsletter (used every month) but this inserted
text is stretching out the text of the last paragraph line (Widow?). How do I
stop this.

Turn on Special Characters ( ¶ ), you may have a tab setting or it could be you
did a shift+enter.

That didn't show the problem. I must have brought in formatting from the
original text. I recopied the text into Word and without source formatting,
that took away the s t r e t c h e d out text.
Thanks for your time Mary, lots of your answers help me.

You may have ended the line with a space bar entry.

Forget this idea. I've had the justification problem in the past; 'just
misremembered cause and cure.

Sorry for the waste of electronic ink.
