Default Styles and formatting task bar - "Select all" greyed out W2003

Using the Styles and Formatting task bar, I am finding that the
"Select All" option is no longer available although it has been
until now.

This is happening for styles that are in use and which have been
selected at the cursor - all other styles functions are available.

The "Select All" button (along side the "New Style" button and below
the "Formatting of selected text" box) is greyed out.

This feature is not available unless you have "Keep track of
formatting" enabled on the Edit tab of Tools | Options.


Many thanks - that did the trick - couldn't find a reference to it
anywhere on the MS site.

I must have unchecked it inadvertently at some time recently.


Bad form to follow my own post, I know. Just thought I'd mention that it was
a client's template that was unchecking the box.
