Hi Tamir,

Word is not in the habit or arbitrarily deleting/reformatting Styles. If Style definitions clash, your copy/paste options will determine what happens, Similarly, there are settings that control Style reformatting. Without more details, no-one can say for sure what the real issue is.

Thank you for the reply. I changed the copy/paste options to be "text" so that the pasting will be "dressed" with the current paragraph formatting.
However, you have mentioned that there are also "settings that control Style reformatting". Could you please point out where can I find them?
Thanks,
Tamir
