Where are the Quickstyles?

[bob felice]

I do not have ANY Quickstyles in Word 2007. That is, when I go Home | Styles
| Change Styles | Style Set, no styles are displayed.

I ran diagnostica and ran the repair option, but I still have no Quickstyles.

Some digging around reveals Quickstyles are supposed to be in this folder:
Microsoft Office\Office12\1033\QuickStyles
I do not have this folder on my computer anywhere!

Does anyone have any idea how I am supposed to create and populate this
folder?

The most likely explanations is that you or more probably your administrator
turned off the ability to change Quick Style sets by doing the following:
Home tab, Style group, Styles dialog box launcher, Styles task pane (or, if
you're a contortionist, press CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+S to display the Styles task
pane), Manage Styles button, Manage Styles dialog box, Restrict tab, check
the Block Quick Style
Set switching check box, OK

If this is the source of the problem, clearing this check box will restore
access the Quick Style sets on the Home tab, in the Styles group, when you
click Change Styles and point to Style Set.

If it is not the source and you have done what you've said you have done, I
cannot help you.

As to why you might not have been able to find the Quick Style set .dotx
files, built-in, unmodified default Quick Style sets (.dotx files) are stored
at program files\microsoft office\office12\1033\quickstyles if you're
installed language is US English.
