Styles mysteriously being added to the Normal.dot list of styles
I just opened a new Word blank document and noticed some styles that I did
not add to my list of styles in the Normal.dot template in Word 2003. This is constantly happening where I work. The "Automatically update document styles" is not checked in the Templates and Add-ins dialog box. How are these styles getting added to my list of styles in the Normal.dot template? Thanks for your help!! -- LawTrainer |

Thanks for your help!! Have you "not added styles to Normal.dot", or have you not added styles at all? There's a difference... In the New Style dialog, if the "Add to template" box is checked, the new style will be saved in both the current document and the document's template, which may be Normal.dot. One way to get a handle on this is to go to Tools Options Save and check "Prompt to save Normal template". Then any time you close Word when there are unsaved changes to Normal.dot, you'll get a message box asking whether to proceed -- although, unfortunately, it won't tell you what the changes are. If you say no, any changes will be discarded. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
