One thing about "char" styles. It's sometimes hard to remove them. You can appear to remove them, in the usual way, without doing so in fact, and with the new linked styles, who knows?



Allen Wyatt (Wordtips.com) provides a macro in his Word Macros book (which is very extensive and quite inexpensive), but I have had mixed results with it. Whether it needs to be updated for 2007, I don't know.
