Unwanted Text Formatting

I am using Word 2003 and Office XP. When I apply a certain format to a word
or sentence, everything else also takes on the same formatting style. For
example, If I want to bold a word, then I only want that word to be bold and
not everything else with it. In order to fix it, I have to manually select
UNDO to make it the way I want.

How can I stop this from happening?
