The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Okay, fellow tech writers. I need your expert advice. I have searched Word
help and the Archives for this information. Can't seem to find a feasible
solution.
Here is my problem. I have created my own template and my own bullet style.
Each time I open a document based on the template, the bullet gets all
screwed up. And so, I go ahead and re-adjust the bullet style, save the
changes, and close the document. When I re-open it, all my changes are gone.
I tried basing the style on "no style" in the Create Style dialog box
(that's what Word help suggested). Doesn't seem to help. I also tried basing
the style on other styles. Nothing is working. Please help.
