Word 2003

I have setup a custom numbering style for a document based upon the built-in
headings. I need to copy this document, hopefully with the styles intact, to
a computer at a remote location via the Internet.

Is there a way to copy the original document and paste it within the remote
computer so that I am able to retain my custom numbering styles and have them
apply to the newly pasted document, overriding the bult-in styles that
currently reside in what would be a blank document?

Since the remote location is only accessible via the Internet, I find that I
am unable to use the "organizer" feature.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts, solutions or suggestions.

If you copy the entire document, it should take all its styles and numbering
with it.

MSWord 2003.

Yes Suzanne. That's true. However, when pasting the entire document into
MSWord on the remote computer; the styles, along with the numbering setup,
take on the characteristics of the built -in styles as they may already exist
in the designation "blank document" on the remote computer.

What I'm attempting to circumvent is the reformatting of the document styles
and the numbering setup once it is pasted into MSWord on the remote computer.
In other words, so that the document appears on the remote computer exactly
as it appears oriinally on the local computer.

Perhaps something like a "portable" version of the styles and numbeing setup
that I can apply to the remote computer as I paste in the entire document.

Thanks so much again,

Rod

Are you copy/pasting the document itself (through Windows Explorer) or the
document content? If you paste the content into a new blank document on
another computer, then certainly it will take on the document styles. If
you're just pasting the document, this should not happen unless (a) it is
attached to Normal.dot on your computer and (b) Normal.dot on the other
computer is set to "Automatically update document styles" (Tools | Templates
and Add-ins). See

Suzanne:

As always, thanks so very much. I really do appreciate what you and all of
the many contributors do for us through your responses and inisight for the
"community."

I'm going to put your thoughts and suggestions into play and read through
the attached article from the link that you sent to see if that cures what
ails me. I've found Shauna's site to be very helpful with previous
situations for which I had questions.

Thanks Again - Rod
