Hi Tim, Yup, you are correct :) I was looking for a way to create one variable that can be used many times to apply styling to a block of text rather than having to run through a whole series of options each time for every paragraph.
So at the moment let's say here are 3,000 product names being added and we have specified a certain font, style, colour, etc. for the product names. We have to run through a whole long list of options EVERY TIME for EACH product name. I was looking for a more efficient way to do it. Of course if we could create stylesheets on the fly, that would solve the problem ... :) but we can't. (Note - we're working on an offscreen WritePro area and building documents entirely from scratch - not using templates).
