Gotta agree with Jezebel...

But I've also got an icon to drop me immediately to Format | Style, saving
at least one click. Setting up a keyboard shortcut, even quicker.

Also, I think there's a way to format some text and then tell Word to create
a style from that formatting, which might be a little quicker. Since I
prefer to keep control, can't tell you what that way is, but it might be
something on the AutoFormat As You Type tab... Check Help.

In general, though, I think a web search is a better place to look for a
utility like this than this newsgroup, so try that too.

Why would you need to hit Format, Style a million times? A well-designed
document doesn't use many styles, and most of the style features should be
inherited anyway, to ensure graphic consistency. There's no utility that
will relieve you of the need to think about what you're doing.

I hope I have the right newsgroup here.

I would like to know if anyone knows of a utility that is actually
desgined to create and edit Word styles and style sheets? I need to
create a new template and edit another. The thought of hitting
Format, Style about a million times has made the project easy to
ignore. It seems like there should already be a utility that is
really desgined to do this that would make it possible to put a
serious template together in a reasonable amount of time.

Thanks for the help!

Greg
