Office 2007 annoyance

I'm not sure if anybody else has noticed that Word in Office 2007 has this annoying thing of double spacing after hitting enter. I couldn't work out why when it always says single spacing. The same thing happened to RozPoz when she was making a list, which was annoying as it made her document sooooo long (it was a long list and of course in large print...lol). So i googled, you know how I love google and found the following fixes. We have tried the first fix and it was for when you are actually typing you document instead of typing ENTER you hold SHIFT then ENTER. This will give you a single space instead of a double.
A method somebody clever came up with to permanently fix this (and it works) is as follows:
1. First, open the styles window (Alt-Ctrl-Shift-S)
2. Click the third icon on the bottom (Manage Styles)
3. Click the Modify.........button somewhere near the middle of the window.
4. Open the Format submenu in the bottom left corner and select Paragraph.
5. Change 'Spacing' After from 10 pt to 0 pt. Leave all else as is.
6. Click OK, then in the window still open, select the 'New Documents based on this template' option... then click OK.
7. Then in the window still open, select the 'New Documents based on this template' option...yes again...then click OK.

I used all these steps but the originator said that some may be redundant. Let me know if this has helped anybody else other than RozPoz and myself.

Sorry....been a bit slack. Not a lot to share except for a few nerdy things in blogger. I removed the borders around my header, which looks much better. I made a favicon and installed it, now that was a bit of a marathon and it took several failed attempts before I found a method that worked. I have saved all my instructions and will post them at some time in case anyone is interested. As I said, I love knowing how to do something, sometimes more than the doing. It may not seem like much is happening but it's all going on in the background......
