I presume that all three of your posts are referencing the same issue. If
not, please post back. Otherwise from Help in Pub 2003:
When you create a publication from a Publisher wizard or by using Publisher
Design Gallery Objects, the individual objects that make up that publication
are synchronized. This synchronization means that any formatting changes
that you apply to an individual element within an object will automatically
apply to the similar elements in that object. For example, if you change the
color of one shape in an Accessory Bar that you insert from the Design
Gallery, all of the related shapes in that Accessory Bar will be updated
with the same color automatically.
Turn off formatting synchronization:
If Publisher applies a formatting change that you make to one element in an
object to all of the similar elements in an object, you can turn off the
synchronization and limit the change to the element that you initially
selected.
On Edit menu, click Undo Synchronize.
