How do I get words to wrap and not separate on 2 different lines?

[Guest]

I am using Office 2000. When I get to the end of the line, words frequently
separate and part of the word in on one line and the rest is on the next
line. I tried left justifications, changing fonts, changing margins, and
even reinstalling word.
Any suggestions? Thanls

I believe you've got something wrong in compatibility. Try Tools-->Options,
Compatibility tab and make sure the drop-down is "Microsoft Word 2000". If
that does not help, I would perform Word troubleshooting:

This could indicate a damaged font but more often signals a corrupt
document. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm. If this is
happening in all new documents, it could be that Normal.dot is damaged; see

thank you. I did what you suggested but it did not help. I am now going to
perform Word troubleshooting. Maybe that will help

As previously mentioned, your document is almost certainly corrupt.
