Prompt to update style

[DianaH]

It used to be that when you modified some text you could highlight the style
box, hit enter, and it would ask if you wanted to update the style. I've
enabled "prompt to update style" but it doesn't seem to be happening. How
do I get this to work? Thanks. (Word 2003)

When checking "Prompt to update style", make sure to clear the "Keep
track of formatting" option. If you leave the latter option checked
(which it is by default), you will be prompted to update the style
when you click its name in the Styles and Formatting task pane, but
you won't see the prompt when pressing Enter in the Style box on the
toolbar.
