Default "refers to more than one style" error

Hi--

After copying some text from one Word 2003 doc to another, the style
'Heading 2' has vanished, and instead I have several styles called 'Heading
2, Char' Originally, there was no style with that name in either
document--it must have somehow been created during te pasting.

Now, whenever I try to apply Heading 2, I get the message "Char refers to
more than one style." But, of course, I can't delete the Heading 2 style, so
I seem to kind of be stuck here.

Anyone seen this before? Any idea how to fix it?

Just did some experimenting on backup copies, and it turns out that there's a
particular paragraph that, when I paste it, changes Header 2 to "Header 2,
Char". Oddly, that paragraph is just in a style caled Body Text, and neither
the place I'm copied from or the place I'm pasting to is using Header 2.

Wierd. Oh well, redo the work from backup. Seems like this might count as
a bug. Unless someone from Microsoft want's to argue it's intended
behaivor...
