I think I figured out how to turn off autonumbering.
First of all, the help system on OO Writer version 3.3.1 Build 9420 is
wrong.
To turn it on, it says:
"OpenOffice.org can automatically apply numbering or bullets as you
type.
To Enable Automatic Numbering and Bulleting
1. Choose Tools - AutoCorrect Options, click the Options tab, and
then select Apply Numbering - Symbol.
2. Choose Format - AutoCorrect, and ensure that While Typing is
selected."
To actually turn auto numbering off, go to Format -> Autocorrect ->
Autocorrect Options.
Go to the Options tab. Unselect the "Apply numbering - symbol: *"
option.
While I was in the option tab I also turned off "Replace bullets with:
*"
At this point I don't know if this setting is saved for OO Writer
globally or if I have to do it for every document I start. But at least
its not tripping me up on my work tonight.
I hope this helps someone.
