Nothing. I applied the macro mentioned in the text to one of my documents, and 
now the question is being asked when I open this document to re-apply the 
styles in the template.

I can live with that. A pitty that such a bug has found it's way into version 
2.0.2. Is there a way to see if it is already fixed and when version 2.0.3 (or 
any next version) will come out ?

Also: is there a way to couple an existing document to a template ?

>Honestly I see no other way to do that. You definietely don't want to update
every template just because you modified a style in a derived document. And the
use for an automatic update (vs the manual one) is rather limited, thus why
should anyone invest time in adding that feature?<

No, but if I would be able to update an external stylesheet defintion, it 
would automatically update all document derived from the external style sheet.

After, all, that is what we are doing with web sites, also. Eeach web page has 
got a link to an external style sheet. If I change something in the external 
style sheet, the whole site is updated. Why is the concept of doing the same 
thing with a bunch of related documents so hard to grasp ?

I am using 2.0.2, and have never seen the question to update my chapters with 
the changed styles in the changed template (maybe I am doing something wrong).

When I now add a new style to a chapter (or to the master document), I need to 
manually copy it into the template using the templates - orginize menu option. 
If I decide to change an existing style I too, need to copy this to the 
template.

This could be an automatic process, if external style sheets are used.

After all, this is what we do with web sites. Why not do the same with 
documents ?

I would like to propose to change the default drag action from Move to Copy 
when using the 'File - Templates - Organize' option to copy styles from one 
document to another document.

I see absolutely no reason why anyone would want to MOVE a style from one 
document to another, so the default action of a MOVE when dragging a style 
from one document to another document is absolutely useless.

I would like propose the possibility to use external style sheets for Writer 
documents (much like the use of external style sheets for web sites).

Now, one chooses a template when creating documents, and changes made to 
formatting styles inside the document are local.

By keeping the style sheet external to the writer document, it will be much 
more easier to maintain a number of documents (and a master document) using 
the same formatting.

F.i., if one is to write a book, it is very likely that each and every chapter 
is written in a seperate Write document and the book is combined in a master 
document.

A template will be created which will contain the base formatting styles used 
for each chapter and used for the master document.
If, however, a new style needs te be added, or an existing style needs to be 
changed (which will happen for sure), all other chapters and the master 
document must reload the styles (if one is to maintain the same look and feel 
for all chapters during the writing process - f.i. changing the page header 
and footer height to present an example).

I propose the use of an external style sheet, where the changes of one style 
in one document is automatically carried over into any other document using 
the same external style sheet.
