MS Office Forum / Word / Document Management / May 2008how to find out which style?
In a long document in Word 2007 I have lots of text from other sources so different styles and heading levels. In previous versions of Word this information appeared when text selected. The style pane only has 4 items and I don't want to have to scroll through all styles to find which one is highlighted. How can I easily see the style for a particular line? Anne S On status line on right hand side click Draft view. Make sure in Word Options scroll down ot Advanced Style Option Pane set .7" width for style pane And on left hand side of your document you can see the style applied to each paragraph. Hope this helps. > In a long document in Word 2007 I have lots of text from other sources so > different styles and heading levels.

However is there a way to make just the Style of selected text appear? I find the screen is rather crowded even without the ribbon. When I resize the Style window I have to scroll a lot as the relevant style usually somewhere else in a long list.-- Anne S > CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+S will throw up the styles window, or you could add > "Styles..." to the QAT (Quick Access Toolbar) [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > How can I easily see the style for a particular line? > > Anne S You can tear off the Style List with options, bottom corner of Styles (Change Styles) on Home Tab and select all the same style if that is what you require? > Hi, Thanks both.

[quoted text clipped - 13 lines] >> > How can I easily see the style for a particular line? >> > Anne S Thanks, I have found that it is very useful to take your earlier suggestion and have the style pane on the left in checking for inconsistencies in style in the footnote area. But I am still surprised that this software does not enable me to point at, or select, a line and be able to see the style in use, although I can see the font, size of letters etc etc. Could Find be used to check next instance of text which is NOT in the required style, say of Footnote Text?
