I keep having to reset my Word to show measurements in inches, to display the 9 
last open documents, not to use animated text or what ever that other animated 
changes or something is and to use sound alerts. sometimes it sticks for a 
couple of days occasionally as long as a week.The big trouble is you never know 
when it changes on you.

That automatic numbering thing I really dislike and when it intermittently 
comes on you don't know it until you are reviewing your document. Now I am a 
working clinician charting daily on sometimes as many as dozens of people. To 
suddenly have my paragraphs being numbered as a list because I began one with a 
number or for what ever reason is just miserable. It is important, maybe more 
important because I am blind that my charts look professional this constant 
second guessing and fighting with those tools which are supposed to work for 
me, not me for them is outrageous.

This is probably off topic though, this could be my last post.
