Are these styles or just formatting? If you don't have "Keep track of
formatting" checked on the Edit tab of Tools | Options, you won't see the
latter.

Several users are working on a document I created using styles I created.
When I get the file back, several styles are being added. The users are
not
creating the new styles. How does this happen and how can we prevent it?
I am using Word 2003 some users are using 2000 and 2002.

Thanks for any help you can give.
