Thank you very much indeed, Gmaxey! It is all very instructive. The code works perfectly, but the style in .Paragraphs(3) - which includes Character: Italics - fails to convert to italics. Is there a simple way to force the change? Many thanks!
UPDATE: I managed to amend using:
.Paragraphs(3).Range.Style = wdStyleDefaultParagraphFont
.Paragraphs(3).Range.Style = "Mystyle"
