Default Change Line Spacing in Contacts "Notes" Section

In the "notes" block on a Contact, the line spacing has been changed to
double line spacing (I don't know how that happened.)

(I'm not sure what to call this section, but when you open a Contact there
is a large empty block on the right hand side.)

How can I change this back to single line spacing?

Default Change Line Spacing in Contacts "Notes" Section

It's the Notes section. Version of Outlook? In 2003/2007: Select all the
text, go to format text tab, then select No spacing style in the styles list
(or whatever style you need to fix it).

Default Change Line Spacing in Contacts "Notes" Section


Dear Diane :-)

(It's Outlook 2003)

Thank you for your quick response to my question.

I can't seem to find the "format text tab."

I highlighted the text in the "Notes" section.

In the Menu Bar under "Format", I get Font and Paragraph. "Font" just gives
me font choices and "Paragraph" just gives me the option of Alignment.

Can you help me get past this hurdle?

Thanks,

My bad. I forget 2003 didn't have the ribbon. I don't see a way to
change it in 2003.

Default Change Line Spacing in Contacts "Notes" Section

Hi Diane,
I am having the exact same problem, I have tried everything with no luck...
so are you saying that there is absolutely NO solution to the problem once
the line spacing has mysteriously changed to double spacing?
Should I copy all the data out of that contact card and paste it in a new
one or will that carry the problem over to the new card? HELP!
