I will try anything you said since my last reply. Yes the paragraphs use numbering. The last thing I tried was to copy one of the paras from my original document into my test document and here are the test results: First I just wanted to make sure that my test worked as I expected: 1. F11 2. Right click *Default* 3. Modify 4. Change say *Spacing* > Below para 5. Click OK and the change made is immediately auto applied to all paras throughout the test document that had been formatted with the "*Default*" style Repeated this as follows: 1. F11 2. Right click *Default* 3. Modify 4. This time I changed the *Indent to various values* 5. Click OK and the change made is immediately auto applied to all paras throughout the test document that had been formatted with the "*Default*" style. Now I copied one of the numbered paras from my original document into the test document and redid each of the above 2 tests: 1. F11 2. Right click *Default* 3. Modify 4. Change say *Spacing* > Below para 5. Click OK and the change made is immediately auto applied to all paras throughout the test document that had been formatted with the "*Default*" style Repeated this as follows: 1. F11 2. Right click *Default* 3. Modify 4. This time I changed the *Indent to various values* 5. Click OK and the change are not seen or made to the new para. Adam
