Default Copy paste styles & formatting

Hi,
I'm trying to copy text from one word document to another. The source
document contains lots of formatting and styles which are different from the
destination document. Say for example, Source document has "NORMAL" defined
in a different way than the destination "NORMAL" style. When i copy from
source to destination, the destination's NORMAL style takes precedence.
I want to create the same set of styles(with different name) and apply
formatting from source to destination.Please let me know how can we achieve
this.

If you want the source styles to take precedence, use the style organizer to
copy the styles from the source to destination document. ALT+F8 Organizer.
