Saving Styles gracee 11/13/2008 6:30:00 AM I am trying to save some styles I created so that they show up in an existing document. I saved the styles as a new template and can access them when I use the template, but I can't access the styles when I open the document I am trying to apply the styles to. How can I get Word to show the styles I created when I open the document I need to modify?

Re: Saving Styles "Stefan Blom" <no.spam[ at ]please.xyz> 11/13/2008 8:55:54 AM If you add styles to a template, you make sure that those styles are available in *new* documents created from that template. In order to add the styles to an existing document, you will have to copy them into the document, for example via the Organizer dialog box. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "gracee" <gracee[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:59DDCCEE-4727-4FA1-8F31-F59E9179DE88[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: Saving Styles gracee 11/13/2008 6:43:02 PM I'm a newbie...How can I copy a style? When I right click, all I see is modify, delete and update. I am running Office 2003. "Suzanne S.
