My dcument is indicating that 2 spaces behind a period is incorrect. Where do
I fix this?
 
Version of Word?

In 2003 it's found under: Tools | Options... 'Spelling & Grammar' tab,
'Settings...' button, 'Grammar Settings' dialog, 'Require' section and change
the value in the 'Spaces required between sentences' dropdown to either "1"
or "don't check".

Two spaces behind a period *is* incorrect. Word is not a typewriter!
However as Gordon indicates you can amend the grammar checker settings.
