To remove that space, select all the lines of an address except the last one, and apply the No Spacing style. (If that style doesn't appear in the Home tab, press Ctrl+Shift+S to open the Apply Style dialog box, and start typing No Spacing; when the name appears, click the Apply button.)

The "line spacing" setting applies only to the space between two lines that are part of the same paragraph. When you press Enter, the next line is in a different paragraph, so the setting that applies there is usually the Space After setting of the first line. (If the second line is in a different style, the space might be the Space Before setting of the second line.)

Very many thanks for your rapid and helpful reply; I also needed the 'no space' when quoting from papers/documents in my own papers as these have to be indented.
Thanks again
