Hi, In the work that I do, I have to start each paragraph with M- and the next paragraph with R-, meaning respondent and moderator. Of course the bullets and numbering keep on adding n-, o-, etc. I think I've turned it off in the format menu, this is in word 2003 which we've recently put on, but I'm sure if I remember there's another place to turn it of, it's driving me mad and I can't find it, it's managing to wreck my document. So if someone could help I'd be really grateful.
