Comparing styles between documents

[MK]

I have a document created from a template.
While writing the document, I have added some styles and changed some.
Now I want to choose which of the style changes I should copy back to the
original template.
The problem is that I cannot find a simple way to compare the styles in the
different documents.
The best solution I have found so far is to print the styles on paper(!) and
compare item-by-item and select which styles I should copy via
Format->Style->Modify->Add to template.
Is there any built-in function to do this?

Hi M.K.,

An interesting question You may want to use the link below to also post this in the Word document management newsgroup and
include there the version of Word you are using, to see if the folks there might have a solution for you that works.
