OK, I got the menu wrong. However your reply is the very one I said not to bother with as I thought it didn't work. (It didn't last night). To my surprise, it worked this evening. Strange.

I've found one way to do it:

"Start | Run | regedit"
Click on My Computer at the top of the structure list

- Wrap at 80
- Wrap at 72

Is there a way of selecting a document class for the active file, ignoring its extension?

I'm trying to make a macro that behaves a bit as EditReformat.

What I actually want is (a) replace all multiple white space in a paragraph with one space except for the initial white space at the start of the first line and (b) reformat that text to the right margin as ...
