Word applies local formatting changes globally. Why?
When I format paragraphs locally in MS Word (make a paragraph bold, or bullet
it, etc), Word automatically reformats the entire document to match the new 'style' of the paragraph. I can undo it, and the formatting remains for the paragraph I was trying to format while the rest of the document returns the way it was. But the whole process adds time and if the change isn't dramatic, I sometimes don't notice that the whole document has been messed up until later. What's going on? |
