tammons: It's not clear what you're expecting AutoFormat to do here. If you've broken your text flow by inserting paragraph breaks and/or line breaks, nothing AutoFormat can do will undo it. Whatever AutoFormat can do may also be limited by what Styles are applied to the text and what AutoFormat options you're using.
