When I change text formatting, the entire document is changed
I created a document in Word 2003, forwarded it to someone using Word 2000.
They reported that when they changed a selected text's color in a table that the color of the text in the entire document changed. If they did a single undo then only the selected text remained the desired color. Since getting the doument back from them it is now doing the same thing in Word 2003. It not only involves color but if I designate a burger dot from the toolbar it is inplemented for the entire document (including headers and footers). A single under results in the desired effect (color, burger dot, etc) only being applied to the selected text. |

The style in use is set to "Automatically Update". Check out the following
