Saving Styles
I am trying to save some styles I created so that they show up in an existing
document. I saved the styles as a new template and can access them when I use the template, but I can't access the styles when I open the document I am trying to apply the styles to. How can I get Word to show the styles I created when I open the document I need to modify? |

Saving Styles
If you add styles to a template, you make sure that those styles are
available in *new* documents created from that template. In order to add the styles to an existing document, you will have to copy them into the document, for example via the Organizer dialog box. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "gracee" wrote in message ...

Or attach the template to the document with "Automatically update document
styles" checked. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ...

Indeed, as long as you remember to clear the option again. :-)

Yes, that's the hazard, of course.

Saving Styles
I'm a newbie...How can I copy a style? When I right click, all I see is
modify, delete and update. I am running Office 2003. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Yes, that's the hazard, of course. -- Suzanne S.
