Replacing All of Your Double Spaces After Sentences with Single Spaces in Word 2003.

So, yesterday I posted about how the world has been thrown upside down and people now use single spaces after sentences. Today, I'm taking my own medicine and have begun retraining myself--but what about my million documents with double spaces after sentences?

Well, I've made a simple wildcard expression to use with Word's Find and Replace function to replace all of the double spaces after sentences with single sentences.

If you want to throw caution to the wind and replace all instances of two adjacent spaces with a single space, go to "Find and Replace" and enter the following string minus the quote marks:
" {2}" in the replace field enter a single space. If you don't catch the drift of the quotes the string would read, space open bracer 2 close bracer.

If you want to only replace double spaces after periods, then enter: . {2}
