There is a format shown in the "styles and formatting" side bar when I
specify "available formatting" thas is named "Normal + Centered, Space
Before: 2 pt, After: 2 pt"
It says it is in use in 1 place but will not go anywhere when I select
"Select all 1 instance(s)".
If I try to delete it it asks if I am sure then seems to accept the
confirmation, but does not delete it.
Any ideas what this is?

Hi Jim,

Do you perhaps have tables with merged cells?

Word remembers the format of cells that don't really exist any more.
If you split the merged cell again, the format magically reappears.

Regards,
Klaus

Hello Jim

another thought: there are unresolved TrackedChanges in this document
and the formatting is part of a right now invisible one?
