In Outlook 2007, sometimes when I type in an apostrophe for a contraction or
possessive,the next keystroke automatically puts extra spaces before the next
character. How do I eliminate this?

do you have it saved in autocorrection? tools, options, spelling,
autocorrect options.

I tried some of the options, but I didn't see anything specifically for
spacing after using an apostrophe. I thought the program may think the
apostrophe is the end of a sentence and be automatically adding the two extra
spaces because of that, but I could not find where to find that setting,
either.

Diane,

I'm having the same problem. It seemed to start after I set up several new
signatures. It's annoying as you can't delete the spaces so my emails look
like "I' m and can' t".

Thanks,

Brad
