Default Different formats for same heading level

Word 2002, Win NT

I've followed all the instructions at
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html
and got my headings basically sorted and numbering correctly (finally !).

However, I want to use my Heading 3 level both for normal text paras and
also for items in a table, with the first being large and bolded, and the
table version being smaller font and non-bold. Is there some way of setting
this up (i.e. two styles pointing to same level) as Shauna recommends not
using the Format menu to update the formatting and this is the only way I can
see of doing it.

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Serena

You can base a style on Heading 3 and then customize the font settings that
you want different.

Default Different formats for same heading level

If I set up the new style and then Modify that style using Format, Numbering,
Outline Number, Customise to change the font, it then associates that level
with my new style and the headers originally on that level lose their
numbering rules for the old style. Is there a different way of changing the
font settings for the new style so that it doesn't screw up either the
numbering or the formatting of the existing style ?

You can change any aspect of a style based on a numbered style, except for
its numbering settings. It should be quite sufficient to modify the font of
the style; the formatting of the outline number should follow.
