Word 2003 has a very annoying default. It assumes too much! If I reformat a
few words in a document, it changes the entire document to that formatting.
Grr-rrr-r! I have to constantly press undo to get what I want. I know
there's a feature that's causing this annoyance but I can't find it to turn
it off! Can anyone help, please?

Thank you very much. I would've never have thought to look at the
format/style part. Connie
