Quick Tips: Changing Your Style in Word

ByWalter Wimberly

The latest video in the Quick Tips series shows you how to change the design style of your Word document in Word 2007/2010.

The style defines how your text appears. It can control your color, as well as your font, alignment, sizes, and much more.

Microsoft has included many ready-made styles for you to select from. All you have to know is how to change the style.

Microsoft also allows you to easily change the color settings for the style. Therefore, you can apply about 20 color variations to the same design style.

To take full advantage of the styles in Microsoft Word, as well as other MS Office applications, you should use the text types, like heading 1, normal, and title, instead of just changing the font/size/margins.
