Don't you hate it when a program feature fails to work in the fashion
described by the documentation? I know I do!

I have created one document in Word that is in the form of an outline. In
that document I modified the styles, Heading 1, Heading 2, etc. to suit my
needs. Now, I want to produce another document in the same style. No
problem, I think, I'll just copy the styles I like from the first document to
the second. I did so using the procedure described below in the help files:

------Begin Quote------------
1. On the Tools menu, click Templates and Add-Ins.
2. Click Organizer, and then click the Styles tab.
3. To copy items to or from a different template (template: A file or files
that contain the
structure and tools for shaping such elements as the style and page
layout of finished files.
For example, Word templates can shape a single document, and FrontPage
templates can shape
an entire Web site.) or file, click Close File to close the active
document
(active document: The document in which you're working. Text you type or
graphics you insert in
Microsoft Word appear in the active document. The title bar of the
active document is highlighted.)
and its attached template or to close the Normal template (Normal
template: A global template
that you can use for any type of document. You can modify this template
to change the default
document formatting or content.). Then click Open File, and open the
template or file you want.
4. Click the items you want to copy in either list, and then click Copy.
---------End Quote----------

(Sorry for the length quote, just wanted y'all to know that I DID RTFM.)

Anyway, It doesn't work.

In the second document some but not all of the formatting features that are
part of the styles from the first document did not appear in the same styles
in the second document after the style was copied. Specifically, and this is
important in an ouline, the indentation.

So, my question for those of you who might know about these things is: How
do I copy a style from one document to another so that ALL of the formatting
features in the style are actually copied. (Frankly, you'd think that would
be the way it would work.)
