Default Style menu: extra inserted items

Indeed, "Styles and Formatting" was more appropriate than just "Styles."

You're welcome. The clue is in recognizing that what used to be called the
Styles and Formatting task pane is just that: it can list "formatting" as
well as actual styles.

Hi,

I get templates in Word from my boss.They have already chosen Style
menu
options. But when I open the template, i see additional style menu
options
that they never put in there. For example, I might see "o. body text"
AND
"o.
body text + BOLD." These options change depending on whether I am
looking
at
the template, or another Word doc I created by doing "Save as" from
the
template. Even so, the orignial template I download has different
options
in
style menu from what my boss sent. It always ADDS more options, it
doesn't
take them away. But I don't know which are legitimate formatting
options
for
our company.

I have a feeling that, in some cases, if I change some text to BOLD,
for
example, all of a sudden it will create a new "o. body text + BOLD"
choice
since I used it. I could be wrong. Does anyone know what is going on
here? I
just want the style menu to look like the one my boss created and not
to
change!

Thanks
Darcie
