Default Word 2007 - Automatically Update Style

How do I disable this PERMANENTLY? I am basically having the same problem as
the Word 2002 version (see link:
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...eformatted.htm ), but I
need a 2007 solution. Its wrecking havoc with my processing of documents.

I wish MS would have left well-enough alone instead of re-inventing the
wheel with this new Office Version. While Im forced to use it at work, I'll
take my 2003 to the grave!

Default Word 2007 - Automatically Update Style

You should still be able to turn off "Automatically update" via the Modify
Style dialog box. Note, however, that if the *Normal style* is updating
automatically, you must use a macro to turn the setting off:

Press Alt+F11 to display the Visual Basic Editor. Press Ctrl+G to show the
Immediate Window. Type

ActiveDocument.Styles(wdStyleNormal).Automatically Update = False

and press Enter. Save the document.
