Hi

At work, I am forever writing dates in a long(ish) format and have started
using non-breaking spaces between the Day and the Month, so that whenever I
have dates at the end of a line it keeps the whole date together. Makes it
much easier to read. So I dont get 19
May'10 and get
19 May'10
Also would work for phone numbers where they're broken out into area codes.

I appreciate that this wouldn't work for the American system where the month
comes before the day.

I cant seem to be able to do this with AutoCorrect as there is no option for
using special characters.
Is there another way, or will I just have to remember to press
ctrl+shift+space??

Thanks

Kris

I don't see a way to automatically replace an "ordinary" space with a
non-breaking one, if that's what you're asking.

However, it is possible to create an AutoCorrect entry that includes
non-breaking spaces: just add such spaces using the Ctrl+Shift+SpaceBar shortcut
(in the AutoCorrect dialog).
