The MS Word 4.0 User's Guide describes another procedure which makes it
even easier to, in the words of the Guide, "create a style sheet in one 
document and then use it in many others," thus providing a level of
functionality roughly equivalent to the separate style sheets of the
MS-DOS versions of MS Word. 

The procedure (paraphrased from the description on p. 353 of the Guide) is:  
1) Open a new document.  2) Choose Define Styles from the Format menu.  
3) Open the document containing the styles one wishes to copy.
