How to remove Character Style in Word 2003
- by joe
I am copying text into a Word document that has its styles protected. Some of the text has a Character style applied to it that I would like to remove. I can change the style and it looks okay visually, but when you click inside the text itself you can see in the style menu that the Character style is still applied. I try to change the style using the style drop down but the Character style won't go away even if I change it to the Paragraph style.
Does anyone know what I am talking about and/or have any techniques for removing Character styles?
I am looking forward to your responses. Let me know if I need to clarify.
Thanks!
UPDATE:
My issue is that the Paragraph style is changing correctly, but the Character style remains applied even though the text is displayed as if the style is not applied. See http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HA011876141033.aspx if you are not sure what I meen by Character styles.
There are four types of styles —
paragraph, character, list, and table
(list and table styles are new as of
Word 2002). However, the majority of
styles you'll use are paragraph
styles.
