I am trying to print off a document with the markup of the styles used for
each part so that I can use it in teaching others our 'house style' - I can
print out the styles in use in the document but they come out in alphabetical
order and without the style applied. I would like to be able to print a
document that means something to my user group to indicate to them what style
they should be using at each point.

TIA

Hi Bob,

Word doesn't offer anything automatic for what you describe -- only the
Print What option in the Print dialog, which gives the list you mentioned.
You'll have to create your own sample document, displaying the styles with
their names and descriptions.

This macro by MVP Doug Robbins will put the style name at the
beginning of each paragraph, if that helps.

RUN ON A COPY--it will add text to your
document.

Dim apara As Paragraph
For Each apara In ActiveDocument.Paragraphs
apara.Range.InsertBefore apara.Style & " - "
Next apara

If you don't know what to do with this, see here:
