Default View style name

At work my computer is set so that I can view in print layout (in a single
box on my toolbar) only the name of the style I'm currently using (as opposed
to having the Styles and Formatting pane in my way). I know I achieved this
somehow but I can't remember how I did it.

I realize that if I work in Normal view they'd be alongside. But for some
reason I still prefer working in Print Layout view.

How can I get the original box back on my toolbar? I'm lost without it.

Thanks for the many times you've come to my rescue!

Default View style name

The Style dropdown is on the Formatting toolbar by default. If you are
displaying the Formatting toolbar, you should be seeing it. If you have the
Standard and Formatting toolbar sharing a single row, it's possible that the
Style dropdown is hidden behind the right arrows at the end of the
Formatting toolbar. You can display it by clicking on the arrows, but a
better solution is to click the down arrow at the end of either toolbar and
choose "Show buttons on two rows."

If this doesn't make the Style dropdown visible, then you can add it from
Tools | Customize. On the Commands tab, select Format in the Categories
list. Then select the Style box (third item) in the Commands list, drag it
to your toolbar, and drop. By default it appears at the far left end, just
to the right of the AA button for the Styles and Formatting task pane.

Thanks, Suzanne! Your answer is, as always, right on target!
