removing extra spaces

[Guest]

I transfer some documents from a terminal-based program. This leaves many areas with a lot of extra spaces between words

Is there anything available in Word 2002 that will "clean up" a document automatically by removing extra spaces

Use Find and Replace. You can search for ^w to find any sequence of white
space (tabs and space characters) and replace with a single space.

Haven't seen anyting automatically doing it but I have

written a macro to search for any amount of spaces which
is more than two (as there is one space between words and
maybe two spaces between words and after full stops) to be
replaced with one space only.
