Default Styles in Word 2007

Thanks Terry I have done as you suggested but the problem now is that
although I have managed to copy the styles across the associated autotext
entries for each style is missing e.g. on a regular template I use there is
a heading for "Companies" in word 2003 I had a style called "companies" and
a list of company names as autotext entries, and if there was a new Company
then I just highlighted the name and clicked "New" then that company name
was in the list. I hope I am explaining this ok!

Cheers

Unless you specifically saved your styles with the templates, they are
saved to normal.dot by default. Do you still have access to your old PC?
If so, you can use Organizer to copy the styles from normal.dot to a
template. Then being the template to your new computer and again use
Organizer to copy them to your templates. Don't be tempted to bring across
your old normal,dot to use in Word2007 because it won't work very well.

I have templates created in word 2003 but when loaded into word 2007 my
styles do not seem to be there. Do I have to create new styles and if so
how is this done in word 2007, or is there a way to copy the styles from
my 2003 documents?

Thanks in advance for any advice
