Multiple styles in a single paragraph
Sorry about the previous post. I was experimenting with coding to see if I
could add bold and underline to my post. At any rate here is my question. I have a legal document that contains paragraphs with two different styles in the same paragraph. Additionally, when I select the hide/show icon, I do not see any "hidden" paragraph marks, or the "style separator" mark. The specific styles are as follows: 1st sentence is BOLD and Underlined in 12pt Times New Roman. The second and subsuquent sentences are in 12 pt Times New Roman -NO bold, No underline. If I place my cursor at the end of the paragraph and hit enter for a new paragraph. The new paragraph automatically BOLDS and UNDERLINES the first sentence, and leave all the subsuquent sentences in normal text. When I place the cursor in the first sentence and open the "Styles and Formatting" task pane, I can see that the first sentence is a "character" style. Likewise, the sencond sentence is also a "character" style. Here are my questions: How do I set this multiple styles in the same paragraph (First Sentence BOLD and UNDERLINED, and all others normal)? Why can I not see the styles that create this multiple style paragraph? Thanks Frank |

G'day "skibikegolf" ,
Character styles my firend - not paragraph styles. Eg, I have para styles like Body Text, Table Text, Heading 1 and so on. When I want bold, I apply character style Strong to the text. If I want it red, I create a char style called Red and apply it...
