And this from Microsoft ........
Yukkk is all I can say ....... Microsoft Development should be ashamed of this mess .... In the document, Word for Windows formatting appears as RTF code. In this code, style information appears in curly brackets after the "\stylesheet" label. The following is a sample style definition in RTF format: {\stylesheet{\s242\tqc\tx4320\tqr\tx8640 \fs20\lang1033 \sbasedon0\snext242 footer;}{\s243\tqc\tx4320\tqr\tx8640 \fs20\lang1033 \sbasedon0\snext243 header;}{\s251 \b\f2\fs20\lang1033 \sbasedon0\snext255 heading 4;}{\s252\li-360\sa120 \b\f2\fs20\lang1033 \sbasedon0\snext255 heading 3;}{\s253\li-360\sb120\sa120 \b\f2\lang1033 \sbasedon0\snext0 heading 2;}{\s254\li-360\sb240\sa120 \b\f2\fs28\lang1033 \sbasedon0\snext0 heading 1;}{\fs20\lang1033 \snext0 Normal;}} To remove an unused style definition, delete the bracketed information for that style. For example, to remove the Footer style from the above sample, delete the following text: {\s242\tqc\tx4320\tqr\tx8640 \fs20\lang1033 \sbasedon0\snext242 footer;} As another example, to remove the Heading 4 style from the above sample, delete the following text: {\s251 \b\f2\fs20\lang1033 \sbasedon0\snext255 heading 4;} "Robert M.

The instructions were printed 3/9/2005 from the following URL: http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;193536 They were forWord 2000. Upon searching for Word 2003, I found nothing. Yeah, we all made _that_ experience! I don't think anything has changed with the Organizer since Office 9/Word 2000. As for using the Organizer to do it: I have the document in question open, I chose a style from the list, click Delete, and it is gone. However after closing Organizer I look in the document and all the styles I deleted are still there. (Yes I closed and reopened the document... 8-) ) I have to ask: Did you save the document between using the Organizer and closing it? I want this document as clean as possible before passing it around. It is going to be used as a "template" for other documents. (Not a real Word template--as in .dot--but that is my next step....) Better take that step before you distribute it: Once you have your users accustomed to "open xy.doc, overwrite some stuff and save as new document", it gets harder to teach them the "right" way.
