An attitude like that is hardly likely to engender a favourable response. For starters, you've posted on what is a weekend in most parts of the world, so you're expecting people to give up time they might have set aside for other things just to tend to your issues. Plus, some of use like to eat, sleep, etc. Furthermore, on any forum, some of the 'reads' can come from web bots that index web sites. For all I know, most of the 'reads' so far have been of that kind.

As for your particular issue, your description suggests you're not using Word's Styles properly. If you're going to do anything more than write the occasional 'note to self', you really need to learn how they work, and start using them. See:

Although the above is mostly PC-centric, the same principles apply to Word on Macs.
