Displaying current style in Word 2007
In Word 2003, there is a Styles listbox on the Formatting menu, and when I
have a doc opened and select a word on the page, the Styles listbox displays the applied style of the currently selected word. How the heck do I display the applied style of a selected word in Word 2007? Thanks in advance! --Mitch |

You can add it to your Quick Access Toolbar. Go to Office button Word Options Customize. Set the category dropdown to "Commands Not in the Ribbon". Select the Style entry -- when you hover over it, the tooltip says "Style (StyleGalleryClassic)". Click the Add button and click OK. Another way to see the style information is to display the Style Inspector. Open the Style task pane (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S or click the little button in the bottom right corner of the Styles group on the ribbon), and click the second button at the bottom of the pane. Yet another way is the Apply Styles box (Ctrl+Shift+S), which is a bit smaller than the Style Inspector. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

Displaying current style in Word 2007
My QAT (which I keep below the ribbon), from left to right, begins:
Classic Style Tool / Font / Point Size So... regardless of which ribbon is showing, I can see this vital information whenever I need it. Moreover, my QAT looks a whole lot like the Formatting toolbar in Word 2003, so I feel very much at home. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Jay Freedman" wrote in message ...
