Also, when I don't want to use outlines, I can't seem to get it

for each, it will again default back to using its outline format.
How can I get it to do what I want it to do???
First off, i should warn that you are likely to catch a lot of flak
for composing your question as a reply to another thread instead of
creating a new thread.
In answer to your question, you are seeing automatic lists in
action. This takes effect anytime you type a number or roman numeral
followed by a period or right parenthesis and a space. It seems to
me like one of those things that programmers love and users tend to
dislike. To turn it off, go to the "Tools" menu and select "Auto
Correct". From the requester that pops up, select the "Options"
tab. About halfway down, you'll see an item like "Apply Numbering -
Symbol" and make sure the box beside it is unchecked.

If at first you do succeed, try to hide your astonishment.
