YES!
Finally confirmed by someone else.
I thought I was losing it there for a while.

It depends on the space left for the last character on the line, it seems.
I was forced to make a behavior that checks the space left for the last character on 
the line, and forces a return if its to narrow (and space is typed).
Works sort of, but is really a last resort.

I have tried with various fonts, but �t made no difference.
This doesn't seem to have anything to do with the "Arial 14p" bug regularly reported 
here.

To try this, end a line with a narrow character, like "i" and then, before it wraps, 
type space.

Can you give some more details?
Font, fontsize etc.

I see this on Win2000 + Dir 8.5.1.
Haven't checked other combos yet.
