Hi, we have a Word documents, well actually 100 of them (each of 100 or so
pages), that have been formatted in a particular but consistent style. The
problem is, we need to reformat them to a different style to match other
documents we already have.

Is there any easy way of doing this please?

Thanks
S

Yes ... and no.

Assuming you formatted your original documents using styles, you apply
updated styles of the same name to the original documents.

If not, there is no easy way. Replace may be helpful, depending on exactly
how formatting was applied, because the replace function can replace
formatting.
