Over the past few documents I have created several new quick styles. Now
I
create a new document and it just shows the default quick styles. How do
I
save a quick style for use in all documents (i guess save it to the Normal
template or something)????

Thanks!


When you click the "Save selection as a new Quick Style" item at the
bottom of
the Quick Styles gallery, by default it's saved only in the current
document. If
you want it to be available to new documents, then yes, it does need to be
in
the Normal template (or in another template, if you're going to base new
documents on that other template).

When you're first creating a Quick Style, click the Modify button and, at
the
bottom of the next dialog, change the option from "Only in this document"
to
"New documents based on this template".

To move a Quick Style that you've already created, open the document where
you
saved it. Press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S (or click the little launcher button in
the
bottom right corner of the Styles group on the ribbon). At the bottom of
the
Styles task pane, click the third button (Manage Styles). In the dialog
that
appears, change the option from "Only in this document" to "New documents
based
on this template".

In either case, if Word prompts you to save Normal.dotm when you close
down, say
yes.
