Note that you cannot delete the built-in styles. Some styles, such as
the Normal style and the Heading series of styles, give you an error
message when you try to remove them, but other styles will just be
restored to the factory defaults.

Hello Robert,
I have Word 2003. The instructions were printed 3/9/2005 from the
following
URL: http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;193536
They
were forWord 2000. Upon searching for Word 2003, I found nothing. As
for
using the Organizer to do it: I have the document in question open,
I chose
a style from the list, click Delete, and it is gone. However after
closing
Organizer I look in the document and all the styles I deleted are
still
there. (Yes I closed and reopened the document... 8-) ) I want this
document
as clean as possible before passing it around. It is going to be
used as a
"template" for other documents. (Not a real Word template--as in
..dot--but
that is my next step....)
Thanks,
Linda

Do I use Organizer? I followed the instructions found on the
Microsoft
support site, but it didn't work for me.
It should work (to use the Organizer; I have no idea what kind of
instructions you found ... ;-)).
Maybe what you really want to get rid of is not a style but
formatting?
Could you describe such a style (name, properties)? How do you go
about
in the Organizer? Version of Word?
