Hot to Turn Microsift Word into a Terrific Screenwriting Program:

Unfortunately, it is NOT so terrific.  It has a couple serious bugs I'm having trouble fixing.  One major one is how to get rid of the blank line following Dialogue so that a wryly (Parenthetical) is followed by more dialogue.  Most screenwriting software omits the blank line and "butts" the parenthetical right up against the last line of Dialogue.

ALSO, the instructions regarding placement of Character, Parenthetical, and Dialogue from the left paper edge is WRONG.

NEXT, per the instructions, Dialogue is to be 3" from the left paper edge.  Software I am using puts it more like 2.7", and the right indent is more like .9" instead of 1.25".

THANKS.
