Because you're pressing Enter at the end of the previous line. When you
press Enter, you are creating a new paragraph, and Word assumes that the beginning of a paragraph is the beginning of a sentence. If this is not the case, clear the check box for "Capitalize first letter of sentences" in Tools | AutoCorrect Options. If you do not want to begin a new paragraph, however, don't press Enter; let the line wrap naturally. Or, if you want to begin a new line in the same paragraph, insert a line break (Shift+Enter). -- Suzanne S.
