Susy,
Adding to Margaret's good advice:
Especially if you're in Word 2000 or earlier, the best solution is to create
a special toolbar that contains the styles you use. Then you just click on
the styles you want -- far quicker than running down menus. It takes only a
few minutes to make a toolbar and only seconds to add / remove buttons.
Post back if you need help creating a toolbar, but check Word Help first.

* If you post a question, keep re-visiting the newsgroup for a few days
after the first response comes in. Sometimes it takes a few responses before
the best or complete solution is proposed, and sometimes you'll be asked for
further information so that a better answer can be provided. Good tips about

* If anyone is still reading down this far, here's a question: is it time
for you to back up your Normal template and all your Word settings files?
(This should be on a medium other than the internal hard drive and, if you
also want to protect against theft and fire, stored in a different
building.)
