Hyphens won't break

[LadyDungeness]

Word 2002 here. I have a document where the hyphens will not break. They act like non-breaking hyphens, but they are not!
If I delete the hyphen and then type it in again, it still won't break. I want hyphenated words to break. How can I make
that happen?

Have you tried switching off "Automatically hyphenate the document" in
"Tools" > "Language" > "Hyphenation"?
