Default How to prevent the style from changing from the previous parag

To determine the "Style for following paragraph," display the Modify
Style dialog box (see
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styl...ifyAStyle.html) for the
style in use.

Suzanne,
Thanks for your response. The style is Arial but it is bullet

pointed. I
first noticed this problem when I started using styles in a large

document (a
personnel manual). I wonder if somehow those styles are affecting

all my
documents.

After entering text in a paragraph (using for example Arial, 10

pt.) I hit
the Enter key to start another paragraph. However, the next

paragraph
format/style changes to a bullet point style instead of

continuing with
the
Arial, 10 pt. style. I can't figure out why the style/format is

changing
and
I don't know what to do to correct it. It doesn't matter what

font or
style I
am using in the first paragraph, when I hit Enter, it always

changes to a
bullet point font in the next paragraph.
