Hi,

I would like to apply a new style to all paragraph with a particular style. For example, change all paragraph with style Style2 to style Style1. How can I proceed?

Thanks for any help.

Herv� Soulard.

Find Style2 and Replace with Style1. Or delete Style2, replacing with 
Style1.

Kenneth's solution

(1. In a content file, find one of your Style 1 paras.
2. Copy Special > Paragraph Style
3. Use Find&Replace to Find Style 2 and Replace By Pasting. )

... works best for book level replacements.

You can also, for a single file...

In the Paragraph Designer with Style 1 open, use the Global Updates drop down menu to select Style 2 as "Apply to..."

My apologies. I've been switching back and forth between this forum and 
the Indesign forum.

In Framemaker, Find > Paragraph Tag > Style2, then Change > By Pasting 
after using Copy Special > Paragraph Format to copy an instance of Style1.
