You can also move the QAT to below the Ribbon where it may be easier to note the style and reach the command buttons. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "christophercbrewster via OfficeKB.com" <u3143(a)uwe> wrote in message news:a8e22f6c96c5a(a)uwe...

From: Doug Robbins - Word MVP on 1 Jun 2010 17:46 I would suggest that you use Ctrl+Shift+S to display the (non-modal) Apply Styles dialog. It will always show you the style that is applied to the paragraph in which the selection is located and every tiem you use that key combination, the focus is moved to the Style Name control and if you want to change the style, with the Autocomplete box checked all you have to do is type enough of the Style Name for it to appear in that control and then press Enter to apply it. -- Hope this helps.

From: Suzanne S. Barnhill on 1 Jun 2010 18:10 But this requires pressing a keyboard shortcut. If you put the classic Styles dropdown on the QAT, you can see what style is applied to any paragraph just by clicking in it. -- Suzanne S.

From: Doug Robbins - Word MVP on 2 Jun 2010 04:28 But the Apply Styles dialog simplifies switching from one style to another. I actually have a macro run by a button added to the Ribbon (simple to do in Word 2010) that displays that dialog with one click. -- Hope this helps.
