Style Sheet Formatting NIGHTMARE (Gremlins abound...)
Issue: I attempted to setup a Style Sheet from scratch, AND I even modified
the existing "Admin Style Sheet Guide" template in Word. However, every [freakin'] time I make any changes whatsoever within the document itself OR whether using the "MODIFY" button, the entire document itself goes completely haywire, replacing formats everywhere and seemingly randomized everywhere, so that I have to hit CNTL+Z and undo OR manually change them all back to the original formats, indents, fonts, bullet styles, etc. This is pure insanity, and it would be quicker for me to simply type a plain document and then go back and format it by design at the end to assure integrity. How can I kill these [freakin] Gremlins in my system??? I'm one ****ed off M.F. because of the waste of time this has been -- I even used the instructions in the Admin Style Sheet Guide VERBATIM!!!!
