I have my own styles that I use all the time. They are embedded with my own toolbar in the normal template (Normal.dotm). When I open a new Word doc, Word reverts to its 'Recommended' list of styles (coloured and shaded bars) in the drop down Style menu. I can open View>Toolbox>Styles, and click on List:>In Current Document. BUT that's a bore. How can I have Word do what I want, and default always to my 'In Current Document' list of styles?
