Default Style multiplication

How do I get Word 2003 to keep to the styles I use and
not clone another 10 for each change of font or whatever.
The Help wasn't all that helpful explaining different
fields.
Thanks,
Mike

These are not styles, just formatting. If you don't want to be bothered with
them, clear the check box for "Keep track of formatting" on the Edit tab of
Tools | Options.

Suzanne, I also have the problem of multiple styles in documents, and have
cleared the check box. What else do I have to do to remove the style
overrides from my style drop-down box?

If they're actually styles, there's no way to keep them from multiplying.
Word will list all the "Styles in use."
