Applying bold to selected text in word 2003 applies to all text

[DavidL]

I apply bold to selected text, either by CTRL B, Clicking in Bold, but word
instead of applying this only to the selected text applies to ALL the
document. All the doc becomes bold. If I apply bold again, sometimes it
leaves only the selected text in bold, some others, it would un-bold the All
text again. So it becames very difficult to use Bold ...
I have re-installed word, used repair option, at no avail. I have checked
formatting styles, etc. ... not a clue... how to get rid of this very
annoying problem.
Any help will be appreciated !

Thanks
David
