Default Word 2007 - save custom margins as building block

Thanks for the response. I ended up doing a template. Guess what? The
gallery captures the last custom margin and puts it on top of the stack.
Should have tried that first, I guess.

As far as I know, you cannot save a custom margin setting.

Of course, you could create an AutoText entry that includes a section break;
that way, section properties, such as margins, will be saved.

However, it will definitely be easier to just create a template with the
desired settings.

I'm trying to create my own building blocks / quick parts wherever I use
an
object or settings repetitively. This so far works great for things like
graphics, headers and footers, Styles, etc. But I can't find a way to add
my
custom margin settings to the pull-down gallery (Page Layout Ribbon / Page
Set up group / Margins). I know I could probably accomplish much the same
result by using a template, but I think using the margins gallery is a
more
elegant solution. Am I missing something here or is it not possible to
add
to the margins gallery?
