Styles won't stick
I don't (often) use the task pane, either, but when you set the style
visibility for the task pane, you're also setting it for the Styles dropdown (which by default shows "Styles in use"). I don't think there's any way to crop the list in the Find and Replace dialogs; that's one you should want to be complete, I think (though if you could force it with Shift, that would serve as well). There's not a built-in keyboard shortcut for highlighting, but it may be that if you assign one it would work in the F&R dialog as well. I suspect it would, as I have changed the shortcut for small caps from Ctrl+Shift+K to Ctrl+K (I swapped with Hyperlink), and when I press Ctrl+K in the Find dialog, I get Format: Small Caps. Whether it would work as a toggle or not, I'm not sure. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA wrote in message ... I found that. It helps a little bit. I use a lot of Find/Replace with styles and highlighting -- the dialog box for Find Styles / replace styles has every style listed. That's the one I'd like to truncate. Is that possible? I'd also like a shortcut on to find by highlighting. Like a control+___ something. I can find/replace italics and underline by control+I, or ^u. Do you know of a way to get a keyboard shortcut to find/replace highlighting? Thanks. Word XP. BTW, I use the menu bar dialog boxes for formatting and styles. I don't use the pane on the right-hand side. Old eyes -- need all the screen space for these LARGE fonts now. ;-) Lady Dungeness Crabby, but Great Legs! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Mon, 5 May 2008 17:20:13 -0500, "Suzanne S.

Choosing Custom opens the Format Settings dialog, in which you can set visibility. |
