Default WORD 2007: Can't automatically update Normal style using macro

To add to what Doug and Stefan have said, before you assume that automatic
updating is your problem (especially if you have pasted content from the
Web), turn on the display of nonprinting characters and make sure that you
are actually dealing with separate paragraphs and not a single long
paragraph connected by line breaks.

I'm desperate. Can Suzanne S. Barnhill or someone update her comments in
"Formatting applied to one paragraph affects the entire document." I am
using Word 2007 and cannot get the VBA macro to work. I followed the
instructions at
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...eformatted.htm, but
when
I hit "Enter," the cursor just goes to the next line. So I exited VBA,
which
took me back to the document, I saved it, and the problem remains.

I would appreciate any help at all. I cannot work with Word changing
things
willy-nilly like this.
