The Reveal Formatting task pane just shows what formatting is applied; there
is no way to change the formatting using that task pane. The Styles and
Formatting task pane can be set to display only the approved styles; if the
document is protected for formatting, users will be able to use only those
styles, which is what is wanted, right?

Management wants to keep a consistency across documents based on this
template. They have specified a font that the users will use. The
requirements for this template is not to change font, font size, spacing,
etc. I already protected the styles, but was wondering if there's a
better
way of doing it, such as hiding all the dialogs and panes that can trigger
these changes.

Why? The Reveal (not Review) Formatting and Styles and Formatting task
panes
offer considerable useful information. Are you ashamed of what they
might
reveal?

In Word 2003, how can I prevent the 'Review Formatting' and 'Styles
and
Formatting' task panes from showing when a user tries to display it?
