How do I disable automatic indentation and para numbering?

Too often it misunderstands my intentions and I cannot overrule it inless I
cut the whole thing and paste into Notepad, format is in Notepade to my
liking and then paste back to Word which does not seem the most intellegent
way of using Word.

Thanks.
The article suggests
"n a business environment, it is a good idea to automate this centrally by
running a macro such as the following whenever a user opens Word:
Sub AutoExec()

....

end sub

How do I run this macro?

Suzanne,
you are referring me to an Idiots' Guide
What are you implying by that? :-)

Suzanne would not have been implying anything like what your message implies
that she was implying.  You asked a question and she directed you to a site
where there was some information that she hoped would provide the answer.
Suzanne did not write the article to which she referred you.  Did you get
past the title of the article?

If you are working in a business (networked) environment, then you should
probably also see the article ?Distributing macros to other users? at:

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested.  Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.

Doug, thank you for the lecture.
I am sure Suzanne has sufficient sense of humour to understand
"implications" of my message

Blame Graham for the title! There's another article at the Word MVPs' site
with a less inflammatory title but a deceptively named URL:

What do I do with macros sent to me by other newsgroup readers to help me
out?
I don't know how to install them and put them to use
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/CreateAMacro.htm

I think Graham's article is easier to understand, though.

I see nothing wrong with the title.
We do not get insulted seeing books "Idiot's something" or "Something do
dummies", do we?

What really insults is the way Micriosoft designs and ships it products.
Thingd like this formatting have been complained all the time and people
hate them, but still no reaction from the vendor.
