Hello Gurus:
Somehow I am missing the concept of using the *Quick Styles* and *Quick
Style Sets*. Having read many of the various posts contained within this
forum, the *Help Files* and my third-party manuals, the lack of explanation
has led me to believe that the concept MUST be relatively simple – and I am
just not getting the idea and perhaps putting too much thought into it.
I understand and have used *styles* extensively throughout many versions of
Word, but seem unable to discern the difference or the advantage of using
“Quick Styles†in lieu of the styles which would be part and parcel of any
applicable template.
In order to take advantage of the ability to change the appearance of a
document using one style set over another mean that the styles within each of
the various style sets have to be identically named? And wouldn’t that
further necessitate creating identically named styles within each and every
style set that one would ever hope to use on a particular document?
How do the *quick styles* and *style sets* apply to the underlying template;
do they remain embedded within the template so as to be available for any
other document based on the same template?
It seems as though saving a new style set actually saves it as a template.
Does the saved style set template then have to be applied to a new document
along with the document template?
I am so baffled by the idea that I cannot be sure that I am even correctly
asking the above question(s) – so please bear with me in that regard.
Any light shed upon this situation or a *point* in the right direction would
be greatly appreciated.
Much appreciation in advance – Rod
