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 ?

 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).

There's a bug that prevents that function. (see issue 63320 for details and a
macro that fixes your document, so that it will update)

And as to adding styles: Yes, either modify the template or modify the document
and then import the new/modified styles back to the 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 ?

Yes. Think of the template as the external stylesheet. So what remains?

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 ?

Why is a master document not enough?

Styles defined in the master document will always overrule the styles of the
individual documents, so you can think of the master document to be the external
stylesheet.

If you add a style, you can always import that style into other documents.

If you base your documents on templates, and you change that template, you're
asked whether you'd like to update your document to the changed template.

So why is this not enough?

I would like to commend this idea very much, but I wonder at the wisdom of 
attributing it to the Writer element.  Surely it should be a framework item, so 
that this functionallity applies to all the application elements?  It equally 
valid for presentations and spreadsheets, and probably for Draw.
