When typing a letter in Word97, it will single space as long as you hit the enter key, but if you need to indent using the TAB key, the program will insert lines into the already typed segment. Sometimes double, triple or quadruple spacing. I haveuninstalled Word and reloaded it. Reloaded the printer drivers. I have verified the line spacing as single and have cleared all the tab stops. Can anyone help?

Not a solution but a workaround.

Rather than using TAB to indent, use the paragraph marker (click and drag) to where you want the paragraph to start. Will do for all line /. When you are done with the indent, put in a blank line and drag it back (or copy/paste the other end of line mark).

OR - Let MS Word do whatever spacing it wants (the stupid thing is so helpful sometimes it isn't helpful). When you get the letter types, go back and set the spacing to what you want itto be.
