SYMPTOMS
When you use the Replace command (on the Edit menu) to replace a custom
style with another style, the text reformatted first may retain some of the
formatting from the original style.
WORKAROUND
When the replace procedure is finished, select the text that retained the
old formatting and reapply the style.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Word 7.0 and Word
97 for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
