StyleRef field - font size changes for last 1-2 words

[Buzz]

I have created a running header with StyleRef that shows the text in heading
styles 1, 2 and 3. The style heading for heading 3 is Calibria 14 pt. In
the header, however, the font is Twin Cen MT 9pt - except for the last 1-2
words, which is changing to 11 pt. Is there a way that I can keep the font
size the same for the entire StyleRef field entries in the header?

BTW I am using Word 2007 in Vista.

Add a \* charformat switch to the field in the header (replacing the \*
mergeformat if it is there) and apply the desired formatting to the S of the
StyleRef

Hi Doug,

The problem can occur if the field has a \* mergeformat switch. Simply deleting that and updating the field is often enough to fix
things.

Thanks for the quick reply. How do you do this (how do you "Add a \*
charformat switch to the field" or "replace the \* mergeformat")?

Hi Buzz,

Select the STYLEREF field and press Shift-F9 to expose the field code, which will look something like:
{STYLEREF MyStyle}
or
{STYLEREF MyStyle \* mergeformat}
There may be other switches in the field , but you'd want to leave those alone.

Doug & Macropod -

Thanks so much for the advice - it worked perfectly!
