I'm new at using Oo, but it seems to me that if your font keeps regressing to 
Times New Roman, that it is your "default font."  You need to change your 
default font to Arial.  I have always preferred Arial myself for writing 
documents and before I knew about changing my default font to Arial, I used to 
get so angry at the problem of everything turning to "Times."  I do not know 
the font changing process in Oo, I learned how in "MSWord."
  Someone else will need to advise you how to do it and we'll both learn 
something.

  No. That's what happened. Really. And, just because of your reply, I 
tried it on a test page and it happened again.
I started a new document, created a table 24 rows by 7 columns. I resized 
the first column to be a bit wider, typed "Now is the time" in column 1. It 
came out in Times New Roman by default. Then I copied that cell down a 
bunch of rows. I selected those rows and modified the font of all to Arial 
(still size 12).

Then I changed the word "Now" on one of those lines to Arial size 10. I 
then selected the word "Now". I double clicked the paintbrush to copy the 
style and clicked on the word "Now" on another row. The rest of that line 
reverted to Times New Roman.

This seems wrong to me. Bug or feature?
