RD: That of course fixed it. I think this is a case of a default being changed that should have been left alone! All previous releases of OOo had the [do not split paragraphs] unchecked by default. To avoid really confusing most newbies I think that this should be set back to that behavior for the next release, 1.9.whatever, and all further releases. Just my opinion, but I bet a lot of others share it.


Your implicit assumption is that the default was changed. As far as I can tell, it wasn't. I have been using the pre-release copies for some time, and I've always had that box un-checked. So has, AFAICT, everyone else in the OOoAuthors team who has been writing the user guide for OOo 2.0.


The problem seems to have been in your installation.

RD: It *WAS* changed with *this* particular copy of 1.9.87 that I downloaded about a week ago. Your guess is a good as mine as to how the 1.9.87 that was on the Canada Cygnal FTP mirror ended up that way. I have downloaded many copies of OOo over the last couple of years, I upgrade about every time that I hear on this list that there is a new version worth upgrading to, and I have* never* seen another one set up this way before.
