Style Type Char Char Car Car Char
HI!
I'm having problems when I edit documents in Word. I have predefined styles and when I want to used them Word automatically changes the style to Char Char Car Char. Ultimately all the styles are changing to Char 2. I tried to eliminate this style but it doesn't appear in the Styles list. Any hlep greatly appreciated. |

Another way to avoid breaking linked styles is to use paste unformatted text.
I assigned this macro to a keyboard shortcut: Sub PasteText() ' ' PasteText Macro Selection.PasteSpecial DataType:=wdPasteText End Sub Pam Yiyomakaveli wrote: HI!

Also update whatever version you use, if it's not up-to-date... A lot of the issues have been fixed. Some of these fixes just hide the "Char Car Zchn..." style mess better, but that's still better than nothing ;-) Word 2007 does a pretty good job of cleaning them up if you just open and save the document (...a solution that will obviously only work if you have access to it somewhere). If you don't see the style name in the style list, you could use VBA to delete it: -- Open the VBA editor (Alt+F11) -- Go into the Immediate window (Strg+G) -- Type ActiveDocument.Styles("PutStyleNameHere").Delete and hit Enter at the end of the line. If the style name starts with a blank and just contains multiple "Char" (and/or "Car" "Zchn" ... from other language versions), Word may not allow you to delete or rename or access the style at all. For that case, Larry found a trick: Save in XML format and re-open the document. This removes the leading blank, and then you can delete the style. Regards, Klaus |
