For some reason, I am no longer able to make a series of spaces using the space bar. After one space, pressing the space bar will not advance the cursor.
Rejoice! This is how all word processors should work. Countable spaces exist only in Typewriterland. With proper type faces, the space between words is anything from a minimum value up to whatever is required to range across a line. The spacebar no longer represents an actual amount of space but merely indicates a word break in the text. If you need to space material differently, you do it properly - using tabs, tables, frames, or whatever.
I don't remember changing anything so I have no idea where to even begin to look for whatever setting I assume I must have changed to cause this behavior. Can someone help me how please?
Yes: forget about multiple spaces and set up proper spacing using the correct facilities of your word processor, whichever that is.
(Oh, but if you really want to fossilize in Typewriterland in the previous millennium, go to Tools | AutoCorrect Options... | Options and remove the tick from "Ignore double spaces". And hang your head in shame.)
