How do you double space on Microsoft Word?

To double space in Wordpad, do the following:

1) Highlight (select) all of your text. You can do this quickly by pressing CTRL+A

2) Press CTRL+2

This will double space all the text you have already written.

Otherwise, you will need to press CTRL+2 after every line.

I am not aware of any way to automatically double-spacing as you go along.
