Olav, you got me thinking and I found the solution :-)<BR>
<BR>
I am using existing templates and there was a character style in it.<BR>
When using the following steps the problem is (strangely enough) gone... <BR>
</SPAN></FONT><OL><LI><FONT FACE="Verdana"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>Remove all Character and Paragraph Styles
</SPAN></FONT><LI><FONT FACE="Verdana"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>Import the Word file
</SPAN></FONT><LI><FONT FACE="Verdana"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>Remove all Character and Paragraph Styles 
</SPAN></FONT><LI><FONT FACE="Verdana"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>Save the document
</SPAN></FONT><LI><FONT FACE="Verdana"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>Create the styles you need
</SPAN></FONT><LI><FONT FACE="Verdana"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>Apply the &#8220;basic&#8221; style to all text
</SPAN></FONT><LI><FONT FACE="Verdana"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>Apply all exception-styles to the text<BR>

&nbsp;&nbsp;Loosing formatting when applying styles... sometimes....<BR>
<BR>
Ton-- <BR>
<BR>
How are you applying the style? Are you setting the paragraph style property of the object to a given paragraph style, or are you using the apply style method? <BR>
<BR>
Next, in my experience, problems like this are usually caused by the Word document having a character style applied to the text in addition to having a paragraph style applied. Could that be the case here? <BR>
<BR>
Thanks, <BR>
<BR>
