Hey...

All of a sudden when I highlight a paragraph in MS Word 2003 to, say, make it bold or change the font, it changes the WHOLE document!

Word calls it 'Automatically Update Style' when I go to Edit > Undo to undo the changes Word has made.

This has recently begun - have you any ideas I can stop this please and make Word go back to behaving normally please?!

Thanks in advance...

Go to 'Format' and 'Style' and look for the style you are having problems with. Click 'modify' and uncheck 'Automatically Update'.

That should take care of it.

Thanks!!
