AutoFormat Problems

I have checked my autoformat settings and they are set
correct. However when I try to do 3 hyphens and then
enter Word won't autoformat a line or a paragraph border.

I have also tried doing 3 =s and still no double line.

Can anyone help me figure out what might be going on with
this?

Thanks.

Kay

Did you press Enter afterward? Is this enabled in AutoFormat As You Type and
not just AutoFormat?

Kay,

When you say found "it," what do you mean by "it?"

Tools>AutoCorrect Options>AutoFormat As You Type>Apply As
You Type>Borders. Is this checked?
