Style templates and master documents
Hi ?B?c3VlIHA=?=,
Did you actually use this "style template" to create both the master document and all the sub-documents? Or did you simply copy the styles from this "style template" to the individual files? If the latter, then check all the files that "update style automatically" in Tools/Templates and Addins is NOT activated. I have a large document that requires specific styling, etc. I therefore created it as a master and subdocuments with its own style template. Trouble is that every time I open it some of the headings have changed style and I have to use the styles organiser to re-copy the styles from the appropriate template over the document ones. Then the headings become properly formatted. However, I keep finding headings and lists, etc that have lost their formatting. These text sections are still labelled with the appropriate style, but it has to be re-applied before the format appears correct. I am using Word 2000 on XP machines, although the problem may have first started to occur when I transferred the document (and template) onto a machine using Word 2003. (I had to reapply all the styles from about a third of the way in - it's a large document and I was very unhappy!)
