WD2007: Show current style?
I previous versions of Word, a box on one of the toolbars showed you
which style you had applied to the selected text. In 2007, though, I can see the Styles group on the Ribbon, but not the style of the selected text. Is there any way to show this like previous version did without having to use several mouse clicks to get to it? Ed |

Toolbar: Click the Office Button to display the Office menu Click Word Options to display the Word Options dialog box Click Customize in the left pane to display the Customize Quick Access Toolbar and keyboard shortcuts pane on the right In the Choose commands from drop-down list box, select Popular Commands From the list below, select Style (not Styles) Click Add Choose where the customization is saved in the Customize Quick Access Toolbar; by default it will be saved in Word.qat (For all documents (default)) and will be available for all documents Click OK The style applied at the position of the insertion point will be displayed in the Styles Combo Box in the Quick Access Toolbar regardless of which tab is active.

Hi Ed,
In addition to Aeneas' there is also the Word 2007 'Style Inspector' pane that you can float or dock to show more detail on currently selected text. You can assign a keyboard shortcut to it through Office Button=Word Options=Customize=Keyboard and select, from the 'All Commands' category the 'FormattingPaneCurrent' choice. ============= "Ed from AZ" wrote in message ...
