Here's what I did to solve it. I put my cursor on the first letter of the text to be included in the style. I highlighted the text and then I continued to hold down my shift key while using the left arrow key to move back to the last letter that was highlighted, which would, of course, un-highlight that letter. I then moved the right arrow, continuing to hold down the shift key in order to get that last letter highlighted. Then I applied the style. This sounds very tedious but once you get the hang of it, you can do it quickly and avoid the frustration you had yesterday. Sometimes the style codes insert themselves in the midst of other code activity and that is what will cause havoc. Ann Foxworth, Computer Braille Specialist Texas Commission for the Blind 4800 N.

I am running into a problem that I hope George or Steve or one of you gurus can help me with. I am dealing with a lengthy document in which I am trying to use list style and H1 and H2. When I try to highlight the text that goes into the H1 heading, for example, the codes are inserted in the wrong place. When I try to apply the list style, which I have modified a little to suit myself, the beginning of list code gets put in right, but the [ee~list] shows up at the end of the first list item, rather than at the end of the list. I went through yesterday and manually forced all these style codes, but when I embossed the thing half of them didn't work. In the end I used [ptys], [hds/hde] and [ind5] for my headings and hanging indents, but that is tedious. So is manually forcing all those style codes. Is there a bug that is causing Duxbury not to put the codes where I have requested them? If you highlight the line you want to appear as H2, shouldn't the codes flank that line? Am I missing something elementary here? (no doubt!) Thanks for any and all help. I was feeling awfully smug that I had discovered and learned how to use styles, and now this disaster!
