I'm working with bullets and the text is single spaced but it appears double
spaced. When I select the line of text the highlighted text takes up a much
larger region giving the on screen appearance of double spaced text or just
any spaced text other than single spaced text which is what it is set to.
 
That answered my question also the text was scanned in from another program
I'm not sure what but you had the right idea. I was working with office
2000. Thanks I'll keep your suggestions in mind when I post in the future.
 
Hi Tim -

Keep in mind that it is always a good idea to mention what version of the
program you are using, as details may vary from one to another. Also, you
don't specifically state whether this is text you've *type* using the
Bullets & Numbering feature of Word or may be something *copied* from
another source (if so, What?).

As a guess, select the text, then go to Format>Paragraph - Indents &
Spacing. Take a look at the values for Spacing Before/After Paragraph,
adjust as necessary.

If this isn't the fix, post back with more specifics.
