The subject says it all. How do I stop OfficeOffice Writer fromcontinually re-formatting what I am working on. I am writing numberedparagraphs, but I do NOT want OO to auto-number them. Moreover I do NOTwant OO to suddenly auto-indent a paragraph I have just finishedwriting. For example, I end the paragraph, hit 'Return' twice to createa line space between the end of the paragraph and the start of the nextone, and when I hit the *second* return, the first paragraphself-indents a tab space....which is just what I do NOT want.

I have tried Format Paragraph with everything set a '0'..and named thatas the default.but that does not help. So where do I turn off thatbehaviour?


This damn auto-indenting is about to cause me to auto-explode.
