Default Word Makes Changes to Unselected Text

One of our word processors machines, when you have text selected and make a
change to the font or alignment it makes the change to everything on the
document and you have to do an undo to only make the changes to the selected
text. Is this normal? Is there a setting for this. I've never seen that
before, mine does not do this.

Thanks

Uncheck the automatically update box in the format style dialog.
