I am filling out a form on different lines and I want to type the same font size, colour and style.
How do I make so I do not have select the above everytime for each line. I am using Office XP.
Thanks in advance.

when i need to do this, i often 'copy' a 'line' set the way i want, then just change the other parts.
do you have Format Painter in the app you are using? if you double-click it, then click the 'line' you have already formatted, it will 'paint' that format on all the lines you click after that. you click once more on the format painter to turn it off.

You'll need to define 'Styles' - go to Format > Style? and you can define just about every aspect for a style (font face and size, colour, line spacing, indents, tabs etc. etc.). Once defined you can apply them through the drop down style box (normally to the left of the font name box on the formatting toolbar). Hope this helps.
