Turning off an autoformat feature
I must have changed a setting in Word XP. My laptop is automatically
changing my entire document when I make small format changes to just a few words. The documents I'm working with are based on a template. Here is my dilemma... when I change a few words in the document to become Bold, it changes all of the document to become bolded. If I center a single line, it centers everything else. I copied the file to my desktop and I don't experience the same problem. I guess I changed a setting on the laptop and I can't find where to turn off the feature to save my life! Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!!! Todd |

Todd It sounds like your base style (probably 'normal' or 'body text') is set to automatically update. |
