Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately, I need the sidebar because that is where the styles list resides, which I use extensively. My problem is that it resides with several other things (Properties, Gallery, and Navigator, although Navigator can still be placed by itself as a separate sidebar). When I load a new document, or even an existing document, the sidebar defaults to Properties, which I don't want. I want Styles, so I have to click on the Styles icon to get the sidebar list I want. If I could set the Styles list as the default sidebar, or if the sidebar would remember my last list for new documents, I would be happy. As it is, I have to take extra steps to get what I want. As I type this, I realize what a whiner I am. Geeze, I have to click on an icon to get what I want. One click. On one icon. It takes less than a second. How spoiled I have become in my use of technology. Merry Christmas y'all.
