Copying between Templates

J

Jean

Auto Formatting gives me five tags that aren't apparently
regularly available to me: List, List 1, List 2, List 3,
List 4. However, I wish to use them and I can't locate a
Template that contains these List tags in order to copy
them to my personal Templates. Help! I am sure I am
overlooking something. Thanks...

These STYLES should be available in any document created
from Normal.dot. Unfortunately, you don't mention which
version of Word you have, but if you look in the list of
styles you should find them.

Cindy:

Thank you for your response, and I apologize that I didn't
mention that this was Word 2000 Office preloaded on a
newly purchased computer.

The Normal.dot Template has only Body Text, Default
Paragraph Font, and Normal tags listed. This Normal.dot
Template doesn't show up in my Word Template Directories,
[under File | New] but I was able to find it otherwise in
order to see what tags were included. The "default"
template here apparently is called "Blank Document."

Thanks. Jean

List, et al styles do show in Format | Styles "All
styles." However, if I use Organizer to attempt to move
these tags to my Templates, all I am allowed in "Styles
available in" is the elusive Normal.dot Template that only
lists Body Text, Default Paragraph Font, Normal.

Suggestions? Thanks

ALL your templates should already contain these same List
styles.

If you haven't explicitly modified the style, it won't appear
in Organizer. But if you haven't modified it, there's no need
to copy it to another document, because it's already there.
Just pick it up from Format/Styles and use Apply.

Or type the style name in the Styles list in the Formatting
toolbar, then press Enter and it will be applied to the
selected paragraph(s).

As soon as you've used it once in any document, it will then
appear in the list.

In addition to what Cindy has said, note that you can force the Styles
dropdown to display *all* styles by pressing Shift while clicking the down
arrow.
