Hi Ardell,

The built-in styles don't really exist until you use or modify them. Not even their definitions are stored in Normal.dot as far as I know -- they come from Word itself (or some DLL that Word uses).

If you delete a built-in style, and then apply it again, it'll revert to the default definition. But any text in that style will change to the "Normal" paragraph style (or the Default Paragraph Font if it's a character style) the moment you delete the style.

So if you want the style definition back to the factory default, it may be better to apply that style in another (clean) doc and copy the it from there.

Regards,
Klaus
