My thanks to Joe (<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>), Phil (Philip Lynn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) and Dan (Dan Lewis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) for their answers. I understand the fact that OOo does not support the type of Paragraph style I am looking for, and that there are ways to get the same effects (from a macro, to a search and apply style method). Joe - may I take you up on the offer on what you said - "Caution: this will also find the first words of all headers, titles or any other text. If that's a problem, there's an easy way around that, just ask.", and ask you for help on how to overcome this ? Many thanks, once again. -- Pradeep Srinivas Bangalore, India --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
