How to stop automatic style creation
Turn off Keep Track of Formatting in Tools Options Edit.
Actually, these aren't new styles but "formatting" - though they do become styles rather too easily if you "Modify". The setting does have its uses if you are trying to clean up direct formatting - makes it easy to see where you have overridden styles, to select and if necessary apply a different style. -- Margaret Aldis - Microsoft Word MVP Syntagma partnership site: http://www.syntagma.co.uk Word MVP FAQ site: http://www.word.mvps.org "Grd" wrote in message ...
