Thanks Stephan! I had to try out what you said, but I think understand what
manual hyphenation does now. My testing revealed that I didn't need to check
whether you need the dash every time you make the line longer or shorter
because:

First of all, I want to thank every person who replied to my topic. This is
actually my first time using mailing lists and I have to admit that I was
initially skeptical that I would get any replies at all, but I was totally
wrong!
Stephan's reply really made me reconsider what exactly I wanted Li
Hi
In the past using different software (Ami Pro & lotus smartsuite) I had
created a text box to go past the margins or reduced the font size to
keep it on the same line (or both); it works for me as I don't

Thanks for the suggestions so far. I guess hyphenation could be useful in
some cases, but it seems to be more of a luxury for me to have that feature

However, I did look into the Word Wrap option. All

Thanks for the reply, but even after unchecking "while typing" under Format
--> Autocorrect, my long word was still bumped down to the next line after
