I am a medical transcriptionist and use Microsoft Word as my word processing
application. Haflway through my shift this evening, I noticed that Word
began automaticallyinserting two spaces after each period I type. I was
editing a template prior to the first occurrence, so I think I may have
accidentally activated this function. I have no idea how to turn it off and
it's making typing lab values a nightmare. The IT people at my hospital have
no idea what to do. Could someone please help?

You must have added an autocorrect entry to replace the period with a
period and two spaces. Delete the entry from your autocorrect list.
