I created a document by highlighting a portion of a web page, copying it
to the clipboard, and then pasting it into a new Word 2002 document.
Whenever I click on any of the text alignment options - flush left,
flush right, center, justify - every paragraph in the document aligns
that way, not just the paragraph where the cursor is.

Nothing unusual about the text. No tables. Paragraphs are separated by
two Enters. The page has some images, if that matters. Format (or is it
style?) is Bold + Arial, 9 pt, Bold, Black.

Question: Why isn't the alignment confined to a single paragraph, as in
my other Word documents?

(For the record, here's the page:

I highlighted starting with the word Osteoporosis (just below where it
says Feature Article) and ending with the italized disclaimer "...for
the diagnosis and treatment." After copying and pasting, I had to drag
the six images to their proper locations.)

Thanks,

Ray
