Another MS Word counterintuitive oddity... I've found that if I simply place the insertion point in a paragraph (single click, no text actually selected) and change the style, the entire paragraph changes to the plain-for-style character format for the new style; all character formatting is discarded. HOWEVER, if I select one word, or even a single character, and apply the style, character formatting is retained. Hope this helps! Mike
