Hell

I am trying to delete 'Heading 1' style from [ Format > Style > Organizer > Delete ], but it says "The built-in style Heading 1 cannot be deleted". I don't want any style except 'Normal', in my document. What should I do

Thanks in advance
 
Live with it.

Hi Mehmet,

Impossible to get rid of, but you can hide it.

In Word2002/2003 you can uncheck "Heading 1" in "Show: Custom" at the
bottom of the styles and formatting pane.

A more radical way to hide the style is by macro:
ActiveDocument.Styles("Heading 1").Hidden=True
(works in Word2000, too)

Regards,
Klaus
 
If you are properly using Word and you format different text differently,
you want styles other than normal.

Using Word without using styles is a bit like driving an automobile and not
using a steering wheel. Perhaps not as drastic in results but just about as
futile in the attempt.
