Default template and style questions.

Hi. Taking a look at this set of steps:


- Create a custom template with styles the way we want.
- Create a document from the template.
- Realize the template was NOT the way we wanted.
- Change the properties of a style within the document. (Normal was changed
to have paragrpah spacing.)
- Save the document.

Where are the properties of the Normal paraphraph style saved? I have been
operating under the assumption that style is saved with the document. Once
the document is created it maintains no further relationship to the custom
template.

Is this correct?

Thanks

S

The style changes are saved in the document. If someone checks the box "save
to template" in modifying the style, then it is saved to the template as
well.

For more on the different kinds of templates and locations of templates
folders see http://addbalance.com/usersguide/templates.htm. For more on
styles see http://addbalance.com/usersguide/styles.htm.

Waa Hoo. The TOC for the style one should read "Stephanie, go here to get
all the information about Styles that you have been unable to get out of MS
Word help thusfar."

Thanks
