Since virtually all styles in Word are based on Normal, they will inherit
its formatting (see
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styl...sCascade.html). This is why
it is preferable to leave Normal alone (except for certain very basic
modifications, such as base font) and instead use another style, such as
Body Text, for body text (see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...odyStyles.htm).

My normal text is indented, but style intended for table cells have no
indent.
The table styles are *not* based on Normal, but they keep getting the
Normal
indent. Then I override the indent, but the style is now one of those
annoying qualified styles. Any idea why the table picks this up?
