OK Ruth, but is that what you are getting or your .txt (input) file? If that is your .txt file, you'll need to open it with OpenOfice and to give it some format, something like:

“Sydney?”
“Yes?”

To do that, work with OpenOffice "styles" as Doitsy told you in a previous post. Format the text as best as you can (applying aligning, indenting, paragraph separation, font-size, etc., etc.). Remember that is the input is bad, the output won't be better. After that, save your document as .doc and use Calibre or the Amazon Conversion Service to convert that .doc in .mobi.
