Subject:Silly question on Word Styles From:arroxaneullman -at- aol -dot- com To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Tue, 16 Aug 2005 10:26:34 -0400
Fell TechWhirlers,
With the great deal of discussion that occurs here on using style
tricks in Word, it makes me wonder...
Does the end-user care, notice, benefit, or lose out if you choose to
use/not use the style tricks? In what manners and to what degree? This
is strictly a theoretical usability question.
Personally, I use some aspects of Word's Style abilities, but (as we
all know) it has "issues" and--being the only TW here--no one else
notices or cares whether I set up, use, change, or ignore styles.
Thanks for your feedback.
