After looking at your example, I agree that it could well be a problem with double spaces. Explanation: Words and characters wrap differently with different fonts, views, etc. What’s at the end of one line in one view or font could be in the middle of a following line in another view or font. Hence, It you have double spaces at the end of a row in one view or font it would not be apparent, but in another view or font that might shift to the middle of a word … leaving a strange space in the middle of a word.

I have a large database with over 215,000 persons At least 18,000 have general notes and there are over 150,000 event records with notes as well. So, it's a huge job to some day spell check all of those records.... The built in spell checker almost works, if it only had a variable to check if a space were removed would that solve the error. I'll look around some other places and maybe there is a solution out there some where for me. <snipped> Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
