Using Range.Delete inserts a space after the deleted character

[Alex]

When I use Range.Delete() to delete a character in a run, Word automatically inserts a space after it.

So, given: "aaaXbbb"
When "X" is deleted, the result is: "aaa bbb" (with a space in the middle)

I tried setting Options.SmartCutPaste to false but it does not help.

Please advise.


Best wishes,
Alex.

Use .Range.Text=""

Use .Range.Text=""

Same behavior as the .Delete, space gets inserted.

I am deleting the ']' character. Perhaps it is significant?

Update:

Happens on Word 2003 from a C# add-in I'm writing.
Cannot recreate it with Word 2000 using a macro.

OK, more details:

I managed to recreate the problem with Word 2000 macros after all and
setting
Application.Options.SmartCutPaste = False
did solve the problem.

I'll revisit it again when I have access to Word 2003.

Best wishes,
Alex.

There is nothing between the first " and the second "
