i notice this happens on some documents but not others - as if some "auto
updating of style" is active

i have some custom styles - work fine for the most part - i often apply
xtra
formatting to the occassion word without issue - but if i format whole
line
as say Bold - Word updates the whole style so that everything else in the
same style is made bold - several times this has happened without my
noticing & have ended up reformatting a whooooooole document again
(manually) grrrrrrrrrrr
