uncontrollable document formatting
Any changes made to formatting on a line, or even a word, applies itself to
the whole document. Uses the undo button changes it back so it is OK but how can I stop it automatically autoformatting the document? I have checked the "autoformat" options and "autoformat as you type" and the Bold and italic with real formatting option is unchecked |

I need more suggestions, please. |

I need more suggestions, please. This description doesn't give a lot to go on. Where does this line appear? At the end of the Autotext entry? Somewhere else? What does it look like? Does it go all the way from margin to margin, or something else? I suspect that the Autotext entries are marked with a bottom paragraph border, in which case you should use one of the methods in http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...tRidOfLine.htm. Once you have the contents of the Autotext entry in a document without the line, select it and use Alt+F3 to assign it to the same Autotext name, thus overwriting the bad entry with a good one. (Make sure you put it into the same template that held the bad one -- Word 2007 can have different entries with the same name if they're in different templates.) -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
