In word 2003, when I clicked on a word or paragraph, I could see what style was being applied.
How do I see this in word 2007.



I have just migrated to ms word 2007. Finding it difficult.

In word 2003, “Help > About” showed the version of ms word.
This is also hidden away in 2007.

thanks

Yes, it is more difficult to find certain things in Word 2007...

To find Help About:

1. Click the Office Button, then click Word Options
2. Click Resources, then click About

You will be able to see what version of Word you are using, who it is registered to, and your product ID.

To view the styles in use (the Style area), you must be in Draft or Outline mode, but first, you have to activate the option.

To turn on the Style Area, follow these steps:

1. Click the Office Button, then Word Options
2. Click Advanced
3. Scroll down until you find the Display section
4. Find "Style Area Pane Width in Draft and Outline Views" and enter something greater than zero in the box. (I use 1")
5. Click OK

Remember, you can only see the Style Area in draft or outline view.

I hope this helps!

Thanks, that does it
