Thumbs up Answer: How can one unhide a hidden style?

Hi Loren,

To unhide a hidden style in Word 2007, you can follow these steps:
  1. Click on the Home tab in the ribbon.
  2. In the Styles group, click on the small arrow in the bottom right corner to open the Styles pane.
  3. In the Styles pane, click on the Options link at the bottom.
  4. In the Style Pane Options dialog box, make sure that the "All styles" option is selected in the "Select styles to show" dropdown menu.
  5. Click OK to close the dialog box.
  6. Now you should be able to see all the styles, including the hidden ones, in the Styles pane.
  7. Find the Header 2 style in the list and right-click on it.
  8. Select "Modify" from the context menu.
  9. In the Modify Style dialog box, click on the Format button at the bottom and select "Paragraph" from the dropdown menu.
  10. In the Paragraph dialog box, make sure that the "Outline level" dropdown menu is set to "Body text" or "Level 1".
  11. Click OK to close the Paragraph dialog box.
  12. Click OK again to close the Modify Style dialog box.

Now the Header 2 style should be unhidden and you should be able to use it in your document. If you still can't find it in the Quick Styles gallery, you can add it manually by right-clicking on the style in the Styles pane and selecting "Add to Quick Style Gallery" from the context menu.
