Keep Words Together on a Line


Word and wordperfect automatically wrap text at the end of a line. To keep two or more words on the same line of type in Word 97 or 2000, press <Ctrl>-<Shift>-<Space> to insert a nonbreaking space. In WordPerfect 8 or 9, press <Ctrl>-<Space> to insert a Hard Space code instead of a normal space. To prevent a hyphenated word from splitting at the end of a line in Word, press <Ctrl>-<Shift>-<Hyphen>; similarly in WordPerfect, you can insert a nonbreaking hyphen by pressing <Ctrl>-<Hyphen>.
