1.When I change the format of text, Word:mac applies that change to the whole document
I have turned off everything I could find related to autoupdating styles
(incl. Normal), AutoCorrect, and still I'm having to use "undo" (the Apple-z
keystroke) after every formatting change I make. It's driving me crazy.
What am I missing? Thanks, qb
2.Text format changes apply to whole document
When I change one item, such as bold, font, color, etc.,
it applies to the whole document and I have to undo ...
when I "undo" the item I changed remains in the new format
and the rest of the document returns to its former state.
Help!
3.Changing the format of selected text causes the entire document format to change
This happens to me as well.
AND: what also happens is that it changes the formatting of the header and footers! It adds two, blank, double-spaced lines!
This is hugely frustrating. It started happening in MS Word 2004 (I'm on Tiger 10.4.11) several months ago and I finally upgraded to MS Word 2008 thinking that would solve it. Nope!
Please send help.

4.applying formatting changes the whole document
Several weeks ago when I attempted to use bullets on a particular paragraph,
the entire document changed to bullets. I went through several steps,
including looking to see if I had unknowingly changed something in Tools |
Options, or on the AutoCorrect menu and could find nothing new. No matter
what I did, I could not get bullets to apply to just the selected text. I
looked at the style format, I looked at reveal formatting and I could not see
anything wrong. Being in the middle of finishing two papers with deadlines, I
punted and did not use bullets.
Now, when I select a word or sentence to apply underlining, the same thing
happens. The whole document becomes formatted with underlining. I can't get
it to just underline where I want.
I have up-to-date antivirus software, have scanned my system and verified
that I do not have a virus.
I have been using Word for many years and previously considered myself an
expert, but I am stumped with this problem.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

5.How to prevent a format change from applying to the whole document
Let's say I select a paragraph of text to make it red. The whole document
then becomes red !
I have to do ctrl Z to only apply the formatting to the selection, but this
is dangerous on long documents.
Does anyone know how to only apply a formatting to the selected text?
