changing fonts andspacing at random

[Betty Wetzel]

I am using Word 2002 with Windows XP. I finish a document
and save it, then when I go back I find a paragraph or
two changed to a much smaller font. Line spacing may
change from double to 1.5 or to single space on some
pages. How can I keep it the way I saved it?

Hi, Betty. This behavior is usually caused by enabling "automatically
update" in some or all styles in your document. See
http://www.word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting/wholedocumentreformattedcontent.htm.

Thanks for the clue. My computer keeps telling me there
is no such url, but I am going to look at
the "automatically update" features.
