Adding New Styles to the Gallery (Word 2007)
When I go into the new style dialog and create a new style, I do not see a by
which to add it to the Gallery on the Home tab of the Ribbon. I was under the impression that there was an option button, or check box, to do so. The same applies to the large style list that is accessed by choosing Manage Styles. There is a large number of styles, but I do not seem to be able to add to the Gallery. Please point me in the right direction Thanks Paul |

Adding New Styles to the Gallery (Word 2007)
If your style is displayed in the Styles task pane, right-click and choose
"Add to Quick Styles gallery." You can promote the style to a higher position in the gallery by playing with the rankings of the various styles in the Style Manager (click Manage Styles in the Styles task pane and choose the Recommend tab in the Manage Styles dialog). -- Suzanne S.

And there is the problem - when I select the style on the Reommend tab, all
the butons become deactivated (grey) except Select All and Select Built-in. I am at a loss as to how to proceed. I cant seem to get styles to the task pane. "Suzanne S.

Those buttons will be grey if the cursor is on a list or table style (They
aren't in the styles pane, so you can't revise the sort order for them). Move the cursor to a paragraph or character style.

Thank you both for your inputs.
The document is not protected, I will try moving the cursor to another style, and report back on Monday.

As you said, the buttons are not grey when I am on a Paragraph or Character
style. But, that doesnt help me - I need to get a new right-aligned list style to the gallery and still do not see how to accomplish that.

character and paragraph styles. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "PA" wrote in message ... As you said, the buttons are not grey when I am on a Paragraph or Character style.

That is quite unfortunate, as I needed to create a right-aligned numbering
scheme and make it easy for our users to apply. Changing the number format to right-aligned seems to be difficult for ordinary people to do.

List styles, like any styles, can be applied via the Apply Styles pane
(Ctrl+Shift+S). Also, list styles are available under Home tab | Multilevel List (look under the "List Styles" heading). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "PA" wrote in message ...
