Bless you, this worked. It was also one of what seems like hundreds of
things I tried yesterday that did not work but I did so before I caught on
to creating my own page styles. This time I had the page style defined
when I tried it.
Had this trick been documented anywhere in the Section or Header help
sections it would have saved me countless hours of frustration. Instead
the sections allude only to Inserting or Editing sections.
I would have thought that you should be able to click in a section or
highlight a series of pages and just double-click a different page style
to change it but I was never able to do this successfully without changing
both sections. Remember, I had existing text and sections. What I'd like
to see in Help is a section entitiled "Changing Page Styles for Text".
Thank you for taking the time to respond.

One other thing I forgot: Per the Help on "Inserting Sections," you should
be able to highlight text, do Insert Section and select a different but
existing page style. You can't do this. It insists that a new style be
created.
I also wonder, in hindsight, if I went about this backwards because of my
MSO experience, namely, I approached from the Section first (because this is
where headers are in MSO) rather than Headers. I never tried turning off a
section header and then doing an Insert Header, picking one of the submenu
page styles. Might have worked.
