Hi ?B?S2FybmllTQ==?=,

step by step instructions for this process?

Which version of Word are you using?

Cindy, we're using Word 2003, and I actually have found my answer. I'm
including the step-by-step instructions I wrote when I found out how, in case
anyone else would like to know. Thanks for responding.

To create the example and style samples:
1. Open your template.
2. Create some paragraphs of text, one for each style you want to show.
(Its helpful, but not necessary, to include the name of the applied style at
the beginning of each paragraph.)
3. Select the paragraphs.
4. From the Insert menu choose AutoText and then click AutoText...
5. Important: - In the Look in: field at the bottom of the dialog box, click
the drop-down arrow and select your template from the list.
6. In the Enter AutoText entries he box, type "Gallery Example" (without
the quotes).
7. Click Add.
8. With the text still selected, repeat steps 4 and 5 above. (If you prefer,
you may change the paragraphs of text to reflect just the style names, etc.
Then select the text and repeat steps 4 and 5 above.)
9. In the Enter AutoText entries he box, type "Gallery Style Samples"
(without the quotes).
10. Click Add.
11. Delete the text from the template.
12. Save the template.

To test the results:
1. From the Format menu, select Theme...
2. Click the Style Gallery... button.
3. Select your template.
4. Click the Example radio button, and view your example.
5. Click the Style samples radio button, and view your style samples.
