There is a block of text (10-12 lines) in a Word 2007 document. If I

anywhere with those lines, it just leaves it as an asterisk and a
space.
The block of text is nothing special. It's 10-12 1-line paragraphs all
set to the normal style.
What the heck could possibly be going on inside that block?
Since they are being turned into bullet lists automatically do this. Add
another * (asterik) symbol to a line. Press enter so that it turns it into a
bullet line then, when the AutoCorrect options box appears, click on it's
arrow and scroll down to, stop automatically creating bullet lists. The
problem should be solved after that.
The problem is not that they *are* being turned into lists, it's that
sometimes they are and sometimes they are not.
