Changing the Default Click and Type Paragraph Style

Normally, when you enter a paragraph by using the Click and Type method, the paragraph is essentially formatted using the Normal style. Granted, there are some changes to the basic formatting of the style (such as right alignment, center alignment, or indentation), but it is nonetheless the Normal style.

You can control what style Word uses as the base style for any paragraph you enter using Click and Type. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Click the Office button and then click Word Options. Word displays the Word Options dialog box.
2. At the left side of the dialog box, click Advanced.
3. In the Editing area of the dialog box, use the Default Paragraph Style drop-down list to specify a style to use for your Click and Type paragraphs. (Click here to see a related figure.)
4. Click on OK.
