MS Word 2010 - How to get the sentences to format correctly

Hello,

 

Can someone tell me how to get the sentences formated correctly. I copied and pasted from notepad to word and it's splitting the sentences and not using the margin space on the word document. I can place the cursor at the beginning of each line and press backspace and space again to fix it, but that will take forever to do. please see the attached imige.

 

 

Thanks,

 

Jose

If you display nonprinting characters (Ctrl+*), you will see that each line ends in a paragraph break (¶). See http://WordFAQs.mvps.org/CleanWebText.htm for some tips on joining the lines.
