Hi, Lynn, I think the problem is that the highlighting is at least one line ahead of where you think it will be. For example, if you are highlighting two lines, it seems that highlighting the first line and then pressing F8 for the heading will apply to both lines. I hope I explained well enough and that this will help.

When I want to apply a style to a paragraph in a .dxp file, I highlight the appropriate line or lines, press F8 and select the style to apply. As I am sighted and do this in Code view, I can see immediately where the beginning and ending style codes go, and often it's not where I want it. The style ending will go a paragraph further on. Or the beginning code will go too early. This happens especially when I'm trying to apply an h1. style, so extra text gets centered. I suspect the problem has to do with where a carriage return [<] or line ending [l] is placed. Can anyone explain what's happening, or point me to the appropriate part of the Duxbury Help? I should mention that these are usually files that I've created within Duxbury (not imported), although it can be when I'm trying to change the formatting of an imported file. Thanks, Lynn
