Could someone please tell me how to turn off automatic numbering in

You mean when you start a paragraph with something like "1." or "1)"?
Two answers:
o Always think of keeping the facility and dealing it with it
piecemeal when it happens. The action of pressing Enter to complete
the first paragraph causes an automatic "correction" which you will
notice. The correction is a separate process from the paragraph break
that you actually want. So if you go *immediately* to Edit | Undo (or
Ctrl+Z), you can remove the correction but retain the part you need.
o If you really want to disable this correction process completely,
remove the tick from Tools | AutoCorrect Options... | Options | Apply
numbering - symbol: *.
I trust this helps.
