JBF, when I saw Jeffrey's question I recalled having the same problem, fixed by turning off one of Writer's many automagical features which are on by default - but I could not remember where. Now, after seeing your reply to Jeffrey, I find this even more curious:

When I type a paragraph and begin it with something like:

1.  The first paragraph.

2.  The second paragraph.

OO automatically reformats the paragraph with a hanging indent
[that is, interprets the numbered paragraphs as a Numbered (or
Outline) style and automatically applies the style]. ...
How do I turn this off?

Menu Tools>  Autocorrect options>  Tab Options

That is, menu:  "Tools" > "Autocorrect Options" > "Options" tab - correct?
Sorry to be so pedantic about that, but it's because even after looking at that tab [as I had done earlier, seeking the answer for Jeffrey], I still don't see which option turns that behavior on/off - so I'm wondering if I understood you correctly. Can you fill in the blank, please?
