Do styles stay with the doc?
I created some new styles, both paragraph and character, for a certain
report. If I turn this report over to another person, will those styles go with the document? Or are they resident on my machine and need to be transferred to the other person? Ed |

One caution: Name your styles so they're unlikely to have the same names as styles in other peoples' documents. That will avoid the mess you get when text is copied/pasted from one document to another and that text has a style with the same name but a different format than a style already in the destination.
