  Joanmarie you got it.

  Ouch!!! I am gonna crawl in a hole.

  I guess I needed another cup of coffee this morning.

  I forgot and entered the stylename with the control-shift-coma instead of 
just typing it in. Oh well.

  Withdraw my bug report but for one thing, it shouldn't say es~para. in any 
case since styles are not represented that way anymore.

  Ok so I am trying to save face grin!!!
