OO insists that I should have an outline when I don't want one.

I want several paragraphs under item 1, and then several under item 2, and
OO will not let me!  It insists that if I type a 1, and then hit return, the
next thing I type must be 2!

I've tried many times to turn off the auto-formatting, but, other than
unchecking the check, which does no good, I don't see any way to stop it.

How how I tell OO that I do not want help with formatting?

Thanks,

There are two ways to do this. If you want to turn off all auto-formatting, then:

Format > Autoformat > While typing (click on it to remove the check mark)

If you want to turn off specific features, like in your case, auto-numbering:

Tools > Autocorrect, then click the Options tab, and uncheck the box marked "Apply numbering - symbol"
