I would guess this situation was caused by a GEDCOM export that broke the

the lines at the end of words and then this word breakup won't occur on
export.
Many of the new programs can c
After looking at your example, I agree that it could well be a problem with
double spaces.
Explanation:
Words and characters wrap differently with different fonts, views, etc.
What’s at the end of one line in one view or font could be in the middle of a
following line in another view or font.

I know you don't want to go the GED route on this but you
may have a limited number of other options.
There are a number of manual-labor choices, though, and I've
had experience with those, so if want details, ask.
IME no program will do this correctly and automatically.
One has to either fix the

I know I have the opposite problem - I have the lack of spaces between
words, but I'm just correcting those as I find them.

John and all,
You are correct.
The problem occurred many, many years ago, and even then, when the
reasoning was discovered, it was too late to re-import the data.
For awhile, many others had the same problem and I admit, I just sat back,

Dave, Jay, Kurt, et al,
Dave is correct about the usual source of the problem. However, I
