Default Can you insert a Style within a Style

1. Can you change styles on the same line? I want to insert into my document
€śtext markers€ť alerting the reader of the number for the correct answer given
at the end of the manuscript. This will usually follow a question. So:
€˘ I want to insert €śAnswer #€ť usually on the same line as the question
€˘ The formatting of the line I insert it on will not always be consistent
€˘ The answer marker must be formatted consistently in a grey pattern box
€˘ The answer marker must be to the far right of the page (ideally always at
the same location)

How can I insert such a marker without changing the style of the text
preceding or following it? If I must always place it in its own line, it
doesnt look right and adds up to a lot of space over the course of an entire
300 page document. I am avoiding insertion as a graphic because through the
course of editing the numbers frequently change and I have had problems with
shifting graphics.

2. Also, is there a way to link the answer # in the body of the document
with the corresponding # at the back (similar to what one does with
footnotes) so that the numbers change automatically when questions are added
or subtracted while editing?
