This will be a confusing question because I'm quite lost.
I've inherited a system at work where the users were using Word97 on a NT.
When the users loaded Word, a wide variety of styles were displayed.
Since we're in the publishing business, only a certain style can be
used. These styles were somehow loaded by a .dot file (VBA).
We've upgraded to XP and now the styles are gone. Although I loaded all
options when I installed Microsoft Office only a few styles appear. At
home I have far more styles.
I took a pre-XP document that had the necessary styles and fonts, erased
the contents and saved the file as a mystyles.dot file. Loading this
file causes all the styles and fonts to be listed. Unfortunately, when
I go through the saving process (the file is automatically saved to a
database, not to the local computer), the file sometimes wants to be
saved locally as mystyles.dot.
Also, when the user opens a new document none of the special styles and
fonts appear. Actually, we only use one style, one font with one font size.
How can I find these styles and fonts and incorporate them into Word on
a permanent basis?
