Style menu: extra inserted items
Hi,
I get templates in Word from my boss.They have already chosen Style menu options. But when I open the template, i see additional style menu options that they never put in there. For example, I might see "o. body text" AND "o. body text + BOLD." These options change depending on whether I am looking at the template, or another Word doc I created by doing "Save as" from the template. Even so, the orignial template I download has different options in style menu from what my boss sent. It always ADDS more options, it doesn't take them away. But I don't know which are legitimate formatting options for our company. I have a feeling that, in some cases, if I change some text to BOLD, for example, all of a sudden it will create a new "o. body text + BOLD" choice since I used it. I could be wrong. Does anyone know what is going on here? I just want the style menu to look like the one my boss created and not to change! Thanks Darcie -- Darcie |

You're welcome. The clue is in recognizing that what used to be called the
Styles and Formatting task pane is just that: it can list "formatting" as well as actual styles. -- Suzanne S.

Indeed, "Styles and Formatting" was more appropriate than just "Styles."
