Thanks Dave for both your response and also for your discussions with Don on my behalf.

I am really looking forward to 10.5 but realise of course that it will not be able to fulfill the wish lists of us all.

With thanks

Christine

At present, there is no function in DBT that will allow you to
merge/add styles from one template into another.

The only way is to make a note of the names of the styles and the
codes that are listed in the "beginning codes" edit field and the
"Ending codes" edit field for each style that you want from your
friend's template, then add/create those same styles with the codes in
your own template.

I brought this point up with Don Breeder who works in Duxbury's Tech
Support team.  He thought it was an excellent idea and he intended to
propose the idea at the next tech meeting.

We shall have to wait and see if it is incorporated in the next
version.  I very much doubt that it will be included in 10.5.

Sincerely:

Dave Durber
