Proportional spacing for type

I've been a pretty consistant user since WORD 5.0 and I'm now just up and running on a G4 Mac (OS 10.2.8) using WORD X. I'm now having a problem that I remember having waaaaaaay back. So far back, that I've forgotten the solution. When I use the Times font, the spaces between the words vary so much I sometimes can't tell if I'd got a typo, i.e. no space at all, or two spaces when there should be one. I vaguely remember there was a menu somehwere that allowed me to turn this off, but I can't find it and I've been looking everywhere

I realise this is a "feature" designed to make type more readable or esthetically appealing, but how do I control it? If anyone can shed any light on what's happening, I'd greatly appreciate it

Thanks in advance!
 
You'll find an answer to this question in one of the Word newsgroups. This
in a Microsoft Access newgroup.
