- and master the basic "must have" computer skills ...
.. would you take me up on that offer?

How do you copy styles between one Word document and another without having to recreate them?
Great question.
One approach is to use the Styles Organiser to first copy styles from the source document to the Normal template, then copy styles again from the Normal template to the destination document.
But that can be tedious, especially if you have many documents.
If you have a library of styles that you use a lot, then you can create a macro (and link it to a Quick Access icon) to make the process one-click-simple.
It's not hard, but it does involve a tiny bit of VBA.
So if that's not your cup of tea, move on!
But if you fancy giving it a crack, follow the steps in this post:

- without wasting another minute on "Dummies" books
- without nagging somebody to help you at every turn
- and master all the basic computer skills you absolutely must have to move forward ...
