AutoFormat corrects the whole document!

I am having trouble with all my documents in Word 2008 for Mac.

When I am trying to format just one line, the whole document changes to that formatting. So when I'm trying to put a heading in bold, the whole document changes to bold. The only way I can get round it is to 'undo' and then the formatting change holds, and the rest of the document goes back to how it was.

I've tried all the AutoCorrect preferences, but it still doesn't work! What am I doing wrong?

It isn't an AutoCorrect issue. The cure is here:

It's specifically PC oriented but you should have no problem adapting.
