There are several chapters on styles you can download at this
address: http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/oooauthors2/.
There are also other chapters and manuals on OOo on this page as well.

I have not been able to put together the concepts of templates and styles.
I think that they work together. But how.
I have the book Writer Guide but not sure on how to do all this stuff. This
thread is helping.
I am trying to set up the Style (do I need a template as well?0 to produce
the By-Laws of an organization to which I belong. So far nothing but stuff
all over.
