What does "All styles" mean?
Well, it certainly doesn't really mean *all* styles. But see

Perhaps it means "all the styles that Microsoft thinks (new) users of
Word can handle"? -- Stefan Blom "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... Well, it certainly doesn't really mean *all* styles.

Apparently. Frustratingly, though, it doesn't include the styles we often
need to refer users to, such as Footnote/Endnote Text/Reference and TOC styles. Which is why one of the first things I did to customize Word 2002 was add a button for the Format Style dialog to my toolbar! -- Suzanne S.

Thanks for all that information. In the Word 2003 All Styles list Footnote,
Endnote and TOCs are there, so that's good. However, I am still mystified about the difference between All Styles and Available Styles. Why would some styles not be available? "Suzanne S.

You can make the styles available or unavailable using the Custom setting.
In other words, you can choose which ones you want to display. -- Suzanne S.

OK, that's clear now thanks Suzanne.
Another related thing that puzzles me is when you choose "Styles in use" you get a lot more styles than the ones being used. In fact it looks like the available styles list. Is the "Styles in use" option supposed to list only the styles in use in that document? "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: You can make the styles available or unavailable using the Custom setting.

I think "Styles in use" means "Styles that have ever been used in this
document (or template)." So if you format a paragraph with Style A and later change it to Style B or delete the paragraph, so that there is no longer any text formatted with Style A, Style A will still be displayed as "in use." You can delete all "Styles in use" except Normal, Default Paragraph Font, Headings 1-3, and any other heading styles that have been used. Deleting user-defined styles actually deletes them; deleting built-in styles resets them to the default Normal.dot default. -- Suzanne S.
