Lists indentations are never retained

[Paul Gauci]

Although I save my templates whenever I edit a style, the lists indentations
are never retained whenever I open a file.

Is there a way in which indentations can be saved properly (I normally use
the Save All or Save Template command whenevber I modify a style).

I also lose the required indentations when I re-start a new list from '1'.

These problems are extremely time wasting.

Thanks

Unless you check the box in the format style dialog to add the changes to
the template, style changes are only saved in the current document. You can
copy them to the template from a formatted document using the Organizer.

Thanks Graham.

I do check that particular box before I save the template. This is why I am
a bit concerned.

Are you working in a business networked environment where the normal
template is replaced when you log in/out?

No - I am working on a stand-alone laptop. I used to have similar problems
with Word XP, but in 2003 I noted that the templates/styles functioned
excellently - their time-saving qualities were great. I think that I stil
have to get used to 2007, at least with respect to the lists styles.

Open normal.dotm in Word and make your changes directly to the template.
