Turn off the "Built-in Heading styles" and "Define styles based on your
formatting" options in the AutoCorrect dialog box (AutoFormat As You Type
tab).

To display the dialog box:

- Tools | AutoCorrect Options (Word 2003).

- Office button | Word Options, Proofing category, click the AutoCorrect
Options button (Word 2007).

In fact you may want to turn off most of the options under "Apply as you
type" and "Automatically as you type"; see
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting/TameAutoFormat.htm.

It should never be necessary to press enter twice or more - set the space
after/before parameter of the style; however this particular issue is a
tools autocorrect options autoformat as you type apply headings option
