I don't want to see Word's default style.
I don't want to see all the styles that come with MSWORD. I want to use my
own styles but I have to wade through all the unneeded styles that come with WORD. Is there a way to hide the style so only those I want to see will show up when I hit style button? |

I don't want to see Word's default style.
I'm using Word 2000 and I don't want to use the default styles that Word
gives me. I want use only my own, but when I push the "styles" button, I have to wade through Word's styles. Is there a way to hide the default styles so only my own show? "Suzanne S.

Word 2000 doesn't give you as much control over style display as later
versions, but you can edit the Styles list somewhat. In Word 2000 and earlier, the Styles list always displays "Styles in use," a category that often bears little relation to what styles are actually in use. Go to Format | Style and select "Styles in use" as the Category. Then select each style you don't want to see displayed and press Delete. You can't really delete any of Word's built-in styles, but they will be removed from the list (and reset to their default Normal.dot formatting). Note, however, that you will not be able to delete the following styles: Normal Default Paragraph Font Heading 1 Heading 2 Heading 3 any other heading style that has been marked as being "in use" The first five are always displayed by default; additional headings are added as they are used and then cannot be removed. If you are sure you have never intentionally used, say, Heading 4, check the AutoFormat As You Type tab of Tools | AutoCorrect to make sure you have disabled "Define styles based on my formatting," which is notorious for applying heading styles (seemingly at random) to short lines of text that have been bolded or italicized. -- Suzanne S.
