http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/. Get the Writer Guide. What you need specifically is the chapters on styles. Also, the Getting Started Guide might be of good use. The chapters of these two Guides are also available in as separate downloads at http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/oooauthors2/.
