753583	2009-03-05 04:45:00	Do other people have this? I'm happily typing in one font and then do a double return and everthing I've typed in that paragraph changes to a different font and style. Its all very well if all lines of text are below each other but if you want to leave a blank line (like above) then you have to do a double space... and its ##***+## annoying when the font suddenly changes. If I hit backspace the font changes back but thats not really the answer. If I hit the enter key twice very slowly its OK but if I hit it twice quickly thats when the problem shows up. I'm sure its a setting that needs changing somewhere but I'm not sure where. I've googled and looked at the microsoft site but couldn't find a similar problem Thanks in advance for your help	ecurb (3669)
753584	2009-03-05 04:59:00	Try running office diagnostics Office button>Word Options>Resources>Diagnose Also try installing Office SP1 and see if that fixes it If that fails, in Add/Remove Programs select repair for Office 07	Blam (54)

What style are you using (i.e. "Normal", or "No Spacing" or whatever)?	somebody (208)
753586	2009-03-05 06:56:00	Blam6 - I'll try those options if a setting isn't the answer Somebody - I'm using 'normal' and when it changes it goes to 'heading1'. What is the "next paragraph" setting?	ecurb (3669)
753587	2009-03-05 07:30:00	make sure the styles in the settings have not changed. From the Normal Style, right click it, Modify make sure the settings are As Default (www.imagef1.net.nz)	wainuitech (129)

A quick fix may be to use "soft" paragraphs I think it is called, where you use SHIFT + ENTER to get a new line in the same paragraph then just ENTER as usual to get a new paragraph - I presume this would solve the immediate problem	Ofthesea (14129)
753590	2009-03-05 22:04:00	I tried all the answers above and none worked except for the diagnostics. Diagnostics didn't say it found any errors but the problem has gone. Thanks Blam6 :o)	ecurb (3669)
753591	2009-03-05 22:55:00	Word 2007/Office 2007 is an annoyance in it's own right. I went back to Office 2003 but had to add the converters for 2007 as my daughter uses 2007 at school and brings home 2007 based files. I personally hope the next version comes back to some of the menu based interface that Word in particular has had since it was originally conceived. Access 2007 was a nightmare, so many things so different to the previous versions.	Bantu (52)

Access 2007 was a nightmare, so many things so different to the previous versions. If someone doesn't like the office 2007 ribbon, there is an addin that will turn it back to look like office 03 - its not free, but there is a trial if you want to see if it works for you. You can download it From here (www.addintools.com). Just tried it on one of the workshop PC's with office 07 - works like they say it does. Screen shots on the right of that site or you can get add ins for only the apps you want.	wainuitech (129)
