Default Can I import existing styles into a document?

Documents created from a template that contains your styles will also
contain your styles. However you can use the organizer (Alt+F8 Organizer)
to copy the styles from the document/template containing them to the
document/template requiring them - overwriting existing styles of the same
names..

I am working on a document to which I would like to apply just heading
styles
that I've created and use regularly, but leave everything else as it is.
The
document already has a heading 1 that is different from mine. Does this
mean
I have to modify the document's style or can I import my own and replace
the
document style? My colleague is also in the same situation, except that
she
has to use my styles. It would be useful if we didn't have to create the
style over and over again, since we will be working on several documents.

We are using Word 2003.
