Thanks Jezebel,

It certainly does appear that Word has a mind of its own and I do appreciate
that there must be a reason for whatever is happening, so wondered if anyone
else had encountered this and, hopefully, found a cure.

When working in tables I find that rows become misaligned, the left indent
changes by itself and the preferred width setting turns itself on.
