I have looked in Formatting, Numbers, Page Layout,
Paragraphs, etc... I cannot stop Word 2000 from auto
indenting and auto numbering once I type in a number at
the beginning of a line. I need it to look like this:
1. (tab) text (enter)
2. (tab) test (enter)
I am a medical transcriptionist and really need to be able
to type as above without Word 2000 placing numbering
automatically.
I would be most grateful for help on this.
Thank you.

Sandy,
Out of the box Word does lots of things it thinks people
will like. You and I don't.
First got to Tools>AutoCorrect Options>AutoFormat As You
Type and uncheck everything under Apply as you type. This
will solve the immediate problem.
See:

and
the Article "It's Your Own Word" at

for more on making Word work for you.
