Default Comments in the sides

There is an unwanted quote mark at the end of that line. Start by removing
that, though I doubt that's the problem, unless it has been converted to
some other character during the copying process.

The language issue shouldn't create a problem, however use the macro
recorder to create a new macro.
While this is running, open the format style dialog/task pane. Select
whatever your PC shows for the normal paragraph style. Click modify and
without actually modifying anything OK out of the dialog. Stop the recorder.
You should get something like:

With ActiveDocument.Styles("Normal")
.AutomaticallyUpdate = False
.BaseStyle = ""
.NextParagraphStyle = "Normal"
End With

Copy the relevant parts of this macro into Greg's macro, replacing the
following section, whilst retaining the first line

With ActiveDocument.Styles(styleName)
.AutomaticallyUpdate = False
.BaseStyle = ""
.NextParagraphStyle = "Normal" '
End With

Thank you for your help and sorry for my insistence.

Giovanni,

What type of error? If I spell "Normal" incorrectly. I get "item
specified does not exist." You might try changing "Normal" to some
style name that you know exists, or stet out the line altogther (add
a ' in front of it) and then go back and edit the style in the
traditional way to set the following paragraph style. Other than
that, I don't know what else to offer.

Thank you. But when I try to use the macro, I get a fault while
running the macro on the statement:
.NextParagraphStyle = "Normal " '
The language I'm using is Italian, so I've tried the name of the
style "Normale", but the the fault still remains.
Can you help me?
Thanks again.

Is it possible to insert comments (I mean a real comment, not
related to a specific modified word) in the sides of the text and
how, if yes? Thanks.
