Change style for one word in a paragraph
I have the following phrase in my Word 2000 document:
Title: Change Management This whole phrase was set to Normal by the original author. I now want to create a new style called "Title" and apply it to the words "Change Management". This way, I can insert a reference in another part of the document to this Title style. I have no problems creating the "Title" style but can't seem to apply it to the words. The words are still tagged to the Normal style. Any help? |

Change style for one word in a paragraph
Did you setup the style as a Character style? I seem to recall that you
couldn't assign a Paragraph style to a part of a paragraph in that version. I think you will also find that Title is a built-in paragraph style, so you would probably be better using a unique name such as MyTitle or DocTitle or whatever. You should then be able to apply the character style to the words. Unfortunately I no longer have access to Word 2000 to check the mechanics of the process. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Melissa" wrote in message ...

Change style for one word in a paragraph
Assuming that I remember correctly, you could apply a paragraph style to
selected characters in Word 2000, and the result was that Word applied the character formatting of the style (as direct formatting) to text. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...
