Table text randomly inherits bullets
I have a strange problem with a document that uses tables, and also
has a set of custom styles which, when applied, use a text bullet - for example, "Caution", "Tip" and "Note". The tables in the document have the style Body Text applied to the text in them. However, randomly after certain saves, the text in the table with take on a custom bullet. So the text in the table, for example, will now reads ------------------------------------------- | Tip: text | Tip: more text | ------------------------------------------- The style applied is _still_ Body Text; when I try to reapply it, nothing happens. The fix is to reapply the relevant table style to the table. When I check the Numbering dialog box for Body Text and the style it's based on, Normal, Numbering, Outline Numbering and Bullets are all set to "none". So I'm not sure why Body Text is picking up bullets from a completely seperate style. Any help appreciated, P. |

Table text randomly inherits bullets
Using the Organizer, copy the *table* style from document that is "behaving."
