HEADING 1...HEADING 2 following styles not correct in a Quick StyleSet

[faceman28208]

Let me try this group...

In Word 2007. I have creates a set of styles in a document. For many
of the styles I set the "Style for Following Paragraph." attribute.

I save the file as a Quick Style Set.

I create a new document.
I select the Style Set that I saved.

If I apply a Heading 1 style to my paragraph, I get the the formatting
that I set up and am expection. However, when I hit RETURN at the end
of the line, the style get set to NORMAL rather than what I set my
folowing style to be. The same thing happens with every HEADING 2,
HEADING 3, .... style. However, the following paragraph style is
correct for all the other styles.

1. Is this simply a bug?
2. If not is there something I need to do to set the following style
for a heading?

When this happens, if you check the formatting applied to the heading, is
the follow on style correct or incorrect?

What you are doing should work. If you used Heading 1 prior to applying your
Quick Style Set then Heading 1 is not automatically updated with Heading 1
in your Quick Style Set. Under Change Styles/Quick Styles, click "Reset
Document Quick Styles" and see if that resolves the issue.
