how do I stop word from making decisions for me?
I do not want word to make a list just because I type in a number at the
start of a sentence. I do not want word to indent my work for me because I tab each sentence at the start. How do I stop this monster from deciding what I want it to do I am in charge of the word processor but this software seems to think that it is and it is driving me crazy. |

Try disabling autoformatting. Office button = Word Options = Proofing =
AutoCorrect Options... = AutoFormat tab. For more info, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/291473 Yves "Dionigi" wrote in message ...

You can turn off your autoformatting, that should fix the issue.
