I am doing a letters mail merge in Microsoft Word 2003, Windows XP. Is there
a way to edit the spacing of a single letter in the completed merge without
effecting the spacing of the following letters?

If you execute the merge to a new document, that document will contain each
of the letters in a separate section. You can then go to the letter that
you want to edit and change it without the rest of the letters in that
document being affected.
