Having trouble with Word's definition of a paragraph

[Dennis Q. Wilson]

Apparently Word considers a paragraph to have ended when it encounters
a single hard return in the text. Unfortunately I seem to have a lot
of old ASCII documents with hard returns inside the paragraph as well,
usually at the end of a line.

Is there any way to get Word to consider a "paragraph" as ending with
*two* hard returns instead of just one?

No, but you can convert the text into real paragraphs. See
