Bizarre Formatting Problem

In Word documents, I have come across a strange problem.  
If I wish to apply certain formatting to a single line
and, let's say for example, I wish to bullet a single
line -- the formatting will apply to the entire document.

I have tried this by both highlighting the text and by
just clicking on the appropriate line -- but, for some
reason, the formatting applies to the entire document.

Here is something else too.  If I undo the formatting
request, the formatting disappears from the document
EXCEPT from the line I wanted the formatting on in the
first place.  So, it is like Word accepts what I want to
format and then applies the request a second time to the
entire document.

Anyone had this problem before?

I may have solved my own problem.  I found this document
on the self-service knowledgebase.  But, if anyone has
further/additional comments, don't hesitate to share
them.  The link to the document is below.
