Default Autocorrect adding return

I want my company name to always appear in italics. I am trying to use
Autocorrect to add this, but each time I type my company name, it changes it
to italics but then returns to the next line. For instance, if I type...

"For company, serving others is our number one priority."
It adds a return after it changes company to italics, and I can't seem to
figure out why and more importantly how to make it stop.

I am using Word 2003 for Windows XP.

Are you using AutoCorrect or AutoText? If the latter, did you save a
paragraph mark as part of the entry?

I looked at this more closely (with paragraph markings on) and realized there
is automatically a paragraph marker put at the end of the line and it was
being picked up when I highlighted the word because all I had on the line was
the company name when I added it to the AutoCorrect. Thanks...your question
did spur me on to the answer because I assumed I wasn't picking up a
paragraph mark because I didn't personally insert one.
