Thank you to Gene, Brian, Joe for helping me to clean up the infected paragraphs! Two problems remain. 1. I cannot find any trace of the process recommended by Brian for 'removing the tick from hyphenation'. 2. An unfortunate consequence of 'removing the tick from automatically' was that the whole file fell into another font. When I corrected this, all the 134 endnotes stayed in the wrong font. From bitter experience I know that the only way I've found to cure this is to change each note individually, which must be an absurd mistake. Can anyone help?

Another try! Is this the right variant of the OO address to get help? My system has suddenly started hyphenating words at the ends of lines & I cannot find the way to stop it. Can anyone explain the problem simply? I'd be very grateful. T. Steel

Quoting from the help files:

   Automatic hyphenation

Automatic hyphenation inserts hyphens where they are needed in a
paragraph. This option is only available for paragraph styles and
individual paragraphs.


     To automatically hyphenate text in a paragraph:

  1.

     Right-click in a paragraph, and choose *Paragraph*.

  2.

     Click the *Text Flow*

<vnd.sun.star.help://swriter/text/swriter/01/05030200.xhp?Language=en-US&System=WIN&UseDB=no&DbPAR=swriter>
     tab.

  3.

     In the *Hyphenation *area, select the *Automatically* check box.

  4.

     Click *OK*.


     To automatically hyphenate text in multiple paragraphs:

If you want to automatically hyphenate more than one paragraph, use a
paragraph style.

For example, enable the automatic hyphenation option for the "Default"
paragraph style, and then apply the style to the paragraphs that you
want to hyphenate.

  1.

     Choose *Format - Styles and Formatting*, and then click the
     *Paragraph Styles* icon.

  2.

     Right-click the paragraph style that you want to hyphenate, and
     then choose *Modify*.

  3.

     Click the *Text Flow *tab.

  4.

     In the *Hyphenation* area, select the *Automatically* check box.

  5.

     Click *OK*.

  6.

     Apply the style to the paragraphs that you want to hyphenate.
