And I do the same. For example, I have a template for speech writing obviously named "Speeches.tmpl" with my speeches styles attached. But that only gets me part way there. Those particular page, paragraph and character styles for writing speeches are somewhat unique. They are all I want and need for a speech project. As it now exists, instead of quickly looking up and clicking on a style change, I have to wade through a whole pile of styles I don't use or want when I am writing a speech. Adding new styles is not a difficulty in OO.o; getting rid of unwanted styles is the problem. I would like to eliminate some styles (temporarily) so that the use of styles is faster, cleaner and more intuitive. -- Regards Bill Fedora 9, Gnome 2.22.3 Evo.2.22.3.1, Emacs 22.2.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
