Losing Font formatting when reapplying style??
Must I lose Font formatting when reapplying style??
I have superscripts (exponents). When I change style of the paragraph from Normal to Text they remain. However, if I reapply Text style to the paragraph, the superscripts become normal text. This occurs on the second application of all styles EXCEPT Normal. Reapplying Normal retains the superscripts. How do I make the other styles act like this and not lose character formatting when reapplied? I am using Word 2002 |

Hi Al,
"Text" isn't a built.in style. If you loose the superscripts when you = (re)apply it, it's probably a character style? Character styles have an =AA to the right of the style name, paragraph = styles a =B6. If you don't want to loose the superscript formatting, don't apply = character styles to them. Paragraph styles like "Normal" are fine. Not sure why you see a difference between the first time you apply the = style and the second. That should not matter.

Thanks.. BUT Text is a paragraph style. It has a ¶ to the right. It is
defined: Normal + Line spacing: at least 14 pt Space befo 6 pt That is all. And character formatting (superscript, strikethrogh) are lost on the second application of the style. This also occurs with the built in style of Heading. I just tried it with Heading 6. Applying this style to line of text with superscripts retains them, BUT reapplying the style causes them to be lost. Give this a try and let me know if your results are different from mine.
