    Microsoft Word '16; Keep words from breaking into next line...


    I have this problem and not sure how to fix...

    Example:

    The sentence would be going like this, then nearing the marg
    in, this happens.

    How I really want it to look...

    The sentence would be going like this, then nearing the margin,
    this happens.

    Please Help

    It seems you might have a word wrapping problem. Have a look at this website. The solution is for Word 2013 but Word 2016 is probably very similar.

    In previous desktop versions of Word this is under the Paragraph Style > Format drop list > Paragraph... > Line and Page Breaks tab > Formatting Exceptions subsection then check (select) Don't Hyphenate

    Does this exist in 16?
