I have a Dell Dimension 8200 with XP, SP2
I've noticed that when I post to this and other Google groups that my text ends up fragmented instead of in a paragraph. I was wondering if anyone knows the cause of this? Thanks Robert |

If you switch from HTML to Plain Text to view *regular e-mail*, does this
show fragmented text as well? An incorrect screen resolution for your monitor can cause what you see. Check the owner's manual. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "Navyguy" wrote in message ...

You shouldn't press Return/Enter unless you're starting a new paragraph. -- Joe =o) |

They hare hard for me to read and type as ridiculous as that may sound. So if this is the case is there no way of shortening the sentences? I have the same problem with my email (Live Messenger) doing the same thing. By the way I'm writing this and letting it wrap around, so we'll see how it comes out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Robert |

I wonder if Hotmail will do the same thing, I'll have to try it and see. Thanks guys, Robert |

Thanks guys, Robert Just resize the window you type into and you won't see long lines of text, but left to its own devices, the email software will lop them off at the proper length. Then there won't be any fragmenting till there are enough replies to make the lines too long. -- Joe =o) |

Robert No, sorry I don't.. seriously. Of course, I have my reader set longer than the standard cutoff length, and the composer just hacks it off at 72 characters, sending the next word to the following line. -- Joe =o) |

Robert Actually it WAS an off topic post - it had NOTHING to do with WinXP (notice that word in the title). Oh, and I did offer a suggestion - ask elsewhere. You want to know where? Fine. FIND IT. You'll be a better person when you learn to solve problems on your own. |
