JBF, when I saw Jeffrey's question I recalled having the same problem,

That is, menu: "Tools"> "Autocorrect Options"> "Options" tab -
correct? Sorry to be so pedantic about that, but it's because even
after looking at that tab ..., I still don't see which option turns
that behavior on/off - so I'm wondering if I understood correctly.
Can you fill in the blank, please?
If I may ... there's a check box labeled
Apply numbering -- symbol: *
Uncheck that, and the behavior ends.
I wish that were the key. (I had looked at it earlier.) Actually, as I
said, I was annoyed at that behavior when I first started to use Writer,
and changed /something/ to get rid of it, but can't remember what it
was. IAC, that option box is *checked* - and I still don't have that
auto-numbering behavior.
