Hi Vince,
Thanks for the suggestion about format style. Do you mean the item
from the format menu which says "Styles and formatting"? When I go in
there there's a combobox with pick formatting to apply and I can
select heading 1 etc from there. But there doesn't seem to be an ok
button or similar anywhere. Have you any ideas?
Thanks,
Catherine
