Re: displaying styles and direct formatting Word 2007 "Stefan Blom" <no.spam[ at ]please.xyz> 12/11/2008 9:31:12 AM The option I mentioned should display entries such as "Bold" or "Normal + 10 pt" in the Styles pane. However, if you are referring to showing (hiding) formatted entries in the Styles pane itself, check (clear) the "Show Preview" option in that pane. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Carole" <Carole[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:4DCCF46D-4878-445C-9075-C39ACCD7BAE3[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: displaying styles and direct formatting Word 2007 "PamC via OfficeKB.com" <u43222[ at ]uwe> 12/11/2008 8:11:34 PM From the styles and formatting pane in W2003 & 2 If you have keep track of formatting ON<, you can choose (from the show dropdown at the bottom of the pane) available formatting (also shows styles), formatting in use (also shows styles), available styles (no formatting) , and all styles (no formatting). If you have keep of formatting OFF, you only have style choices: available styles, styles in use. (Both options have a "Custom" choice as well.) I don't have access to W2007 just now, but I think that after you click Options on the styles pane, in the next dialog you can choose to show formatting.

Re: displaying styles and direct formatting Word 2007 "PamC via OfficeKB.com" <u43222[ at ]uwe> 12/12/2008 5:07:47 AM Not sure why I didn't notice that your question is about W2007. But there it is. Sorry. Now that I am able to check W2007, I see that --When the "track option" is on, if the style pane option checkboxes for showing character and font formatting are clear, the formatting will not show in the styles pane. --When the track option is off, the boxes are grayed, and the font and character formatting do not show in the styles pane. About deleting styles--(This was true in W2003 and may be true in W2007:) Word will only allow you to _truly_ delete user-defined styles. "Deleting" built-in styles just resets their settings to Word's default settings. But the mandatory styles— normal, heading 1-9. default paragraph style, table normal , and no list styles— cannot be deleted. About renaming styles--You can rename user-defined styles and built-in styles except the mandatory styles. The mandatory styles, instead accept your new "name" as a style alias (style name followed by a comma and your "new" name). About restricting styles--You can protect a document for styles. Also, you can choose what styles show up in the styles gallery and in the styles pane.
