Can anyone tell me how to use a "hard space" in Word - I know in
WordPerfect, if you used "Control + Spacebar", you could insert a hard
space. This would allow a group of words to be shown on the word count as
one instead of a few separate words. Can anyone advise how to do this in
Word?
 
Ctrl+Shift+Spacebar.

This is done the same way in Microsoft Word: "Control + Spacebar". I use hard spaces when I do not want words to appear on different lines. For example, if I want the name "John A. Smith" to appear on the same line, I would separate the words with a hard sapce.
 
No, it is not. Ctrl+Spacebar in Word is ResetChar (used to remove direct
font formatting). As several other posters have already pointed out, the
Word equivalent is Ctrl+Shift+Spacebar.
