Deep Dive Into MICROSOFT WORD STYLES (Expert Secrets Revealed!)

This is the most comprehensive guide on YT on HOW to make custom Microsoft Word Styles, and more importantly, WHY and WHEN to use them. Full show notes are given below.

Word styles are integral to many things you do in Microsoft Word, particularly when you are managing large documents.

The two big advantages of using styles are (1) Consistency and (2) Easy Maintenance.

In this video I demonstrate how to create a new style from scratch, apply styles to multiple elements, modify a style and how to use the built in heading styles to navigate and manage your document and build a Table of Contents.

I also provide an extensive walk-through of all the options and settings in the Style dialog.

I finish by showing you how to use the styles you have created in other documents.
