Sometimes when I press Enter the Writer thinks I want to have an indent and opens up the Bullets and Numbering toolbar. How can I make it do exactly what I instruct it to?

To disable the automatic creation of bulleted and numbered lists, remove the ticks from Tools | AutoCorrect... | Options | Apply numbering - symbol: * or Tools | AutoCorrect... | Options | Replace bullets with: * - as desired.

Thanks. I had missed that option. BTW, what does [M] and [T] stand for?

Alternatively (and if you prefer to leave these options ticked), note that when you type something and see an automatic correction, Writer has done two things: the change you want followed by the correction you don't. Since it sees these as two separate operations, you can easily undo the correction but keep what you do want by immediately using Edit | Undo (or Ctrl+Z).

I trust this helps.

Thanks also for clarifying the Writer's actions. I have been using the Undo, but was not entirely sure if hadn't missed something in the process.
