Word formats entire document

[Lars]

Hi,

I'm using word 2003 and WinXP (with updates) .

When I choose to center a line or a few lines of text Word chooses to center
all the content in my document. If a press the Undo icon everything appears
as it should!

Help appreciated

Regards
Lars

Shameless plug, but this problem is exactly one of the reasons
colleagues and I developed HealthChecK.

In Word 2002/2003:
1. If it is not already displayed, display the Styles and
Formatting task pane (using the toolbar button or Format |
Styles and Formatting).
2. Select the style you're using (presumably Normal) in
the task pane and click on the down arrow to display the
menu.
3. Choose Modify.
4. In the Modify Style dialog, clear the check box
for "Automatically update."
5. Check the box for "Add to template."
6. Press OK to close the dialog.
7. Close out of your document and re-open.
