when is a list not a list

[Alexander Baron]

I received some helpful comment regarding autocorrect but is there a way
to turn off the list option period? The chronology below is still being
formatted by WORD as though the dates were list numbers.

Thanks

I think this is what you've been told before, but you evidently haven't done
it:

1. Go to Tools | AutoCorrect | AutoFormat As You Type.

2. Clear the check box for "Automatic numbered lists."

3. Clear the check box for "Define styles based on your formatting."

4. Clear the check box for "Format beginning of list item like the one
before it."

Yes I included details in my reply several days ago.
