Yes, that is exactly what I meant, and it is how DOS Word works.  I received
a very nice email from Paul Davis, Program Manager for Word on the Mac (wow,
I never expected to get personal attention direct from the source!).  He
said that they thought that character styles were a "high-end feature" that
would be rarely used, but that they might have to re-think that.

I just want to give Paul Davis another vote to consider adding character
styles to Word.  Yes, they may be a "high-end feature," but I thought
Word was supposed to be a high-end word processor.  I certainly have
wished they were available many times, and I never even used Word on a
PC.  

While I (maybe) have Microsoft's ear, I've been having a problem with
4.0 which I'm wondering if anyone else has seen.  The widow control
doesn't always seem to work.  I often have pages now which start with the
last line of a paragraph.  This only seems to occur in relation to the
absolute positioning feature.  If I position a figure on the bottom of
one page, the following page sometimes has an orphan line, and if I
position a figure at the top of a page, that page sometimes has one
right below the figure.  Any ideas?
