Default Applying styles during Import

I am converting my publications from Pagemaker to
Publiser. One of the things I can't seem to do is to mark
my imported text to be automaticly styled.

Here is what I mean:

In publisher if I imported information from my database
program I could have is marked like so:

style 1 Course Title
style 2 Instructors Name
style 3 Course Dates
style 4 Body Test Body Test Body Test Body Test Body
Test Body Test Body Test Body Test Body Test Body Test
Body Test Body Test Body Test Body Test Body Test Body
Test Body Test Body Test, etc

The text would then import into Pagemaker and be
formatted with the appropriate style (font, enhancement,
tabs, etc)

Is there any way to do this with Publisher 2002?

Thanks in Advance - Joe

No way to do that in Publisher.

A small child turns to Ed, and exclaims: "Look! Look! A post from Joe
!"...
In publisher if I imported information from my database
program I could have is marked like so:

style 1 Course Title
style 2 Instructors Name
style 3 Course Dates
style 4 Body Test Body Test Body Test Body Test Body
Test Body Test Body Test Body Test Body Test Body Test
Body Test Body Test Body Test Body Test Body Test Body
Test Body Test Body Test, etc


If you have Course Title, Instructor's Name, Course Dates, and Body text in
different fields, you can set the merge fields to be in different styles.
However, in Publisher 2002 you cannot merge to the publication, only to the
printer. Publishers 2000 and 2003 both support this, just not 2002
