 * I’m using the default template for WordPress2. I’ve been able to make posts no
   problems and set everything up. Lately when I’ve been trying to create a new 
   post I will copy and past text in from word. The problem is that when I save 
   the work it completely distorts what I see by changing the spacing, bolding the
   entire text, double spacing, etc. There seems to be no ryme or reason. Even when
   I attempt ust the html code instead it will change the layout when I click update.
 * Sorry if this is confusing, but does anyone have some suggestions?

 * You can not c & p from Word directly. If you must use Word, C & P from Word to
   Notepad and save. This will strip all sorts of annoying crap MS seems to think
   we need.
    C & P from Notepad to Wp.
