I suspect that you are entering a return a the end of each line & thereby starting a new paragraph. The standard spacing for a the paragraph in the 'Frame contents' style is .08 'Below paragraph'. You can keep the line spacing the same by: 1. Using Ctrl-Enter at the end of the line, 2. Modify the paragraph (Format|Paragraph|Indents & Spacing, 3. Modifying & using the Adressee and Sender styles. Personally, if it's a one-off letter I just use #1. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
