Default Format
As an assistant I am often sent multiple Word docs to be
edited/corrected/printed/etc. I receive docs from 5 different people, each with their own preferred format. So when I open their document, my settings are automatically changed. Is there a way to make my options/format/preferences always appear instead of having to change each one of theirs every time I get a new document? |

Default Format
If they are using the same styles that you have set, then running AutoFormat
will change their formatting to your formatting, but if they have used direct formatting with everything in normal style, then no. You can remove all their formatting by SelectAll (Ctrl+A) and then Ctrl+Spacebar, Ctrl+Q will rid all their stuff. What you should do is to create Workgroup templates all correctly formatted to the agreed company formatting and force them to use the templates. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "dleo" wrote in message ...
