I want to add a 4th Level Heading style in my document. Looking at the listed
styles in the ribbon, the levels only go up to heading 3. I went to all styles by clicking the button, and it too only shows styles up to Heading 3. Therefore, I tried to create a Heading 4 style. I received an error message telling me that the style already exists, probably as a built in style. So, can anyone tell me how I get to the style? I don't want to create a pretend Heading 4 style. Regards, Tim -- Tim Pate |

Hi Tim
For time immemorial, every Word document comes with 9 heading styles built-in: Heading 1 to Heading 9. However, for several versions, Word has hidden them. In Word 2007, on the Home tab, in the Styles chunk, in the bottom right hand corner click the little south-east facing arrow. That opens the Styles pane. Down the bottom of the pane, click Options and on the Style Pane Options dialog, in the Select styles to show box, choose "All styles". If that shows you too many styles, then back on the Styles pane, click the last of the 3 coloured buttons (the tooltip is "Manage styles") and play with the Edit and Recommend tabs. I don't want to create a pretend Heading 4 style. Very wise. For 15 reasons not to create a pretend Heading 4 style, see Why use Microsoft Word's built-in heading styles? http://www.ShaunaKelly.com/word/numb...ingStyles.html Hope this helps. Shauna Kelly.
