- I found a much easier way (it works for Word 2016, I don't know for earlier versions of Word):
- In the document you have created your styles and headings, go to the 'Design' tab and click the downward arrow on the style sets. Then choose 'Save as a New Style Set'. A popup window will open to save the style set as a Word Template (*.dotx). Type in a name for the template style set and save it.
- In the new document where you want to use these styles, go again to the 'Design' tab and click the downward arrow on the styles sets. Then choose your saved template style set under 'Custom'. The style set will apply to your headings (if included in the template) and you can choose those styles for any paragraph.- Sweet..! thanks allot, worked

- To post as a guest, your comment is unpublished.I found a workaround. I created the source document and created styles over there.
For example, created styles as numbered headings for h1,h2, h3, h4 and given names for these styles.
Types some empty content with these heading levels as in
11. H1
11.1 H2
11.1.1 H3
11.1.1.1 H4
In the current working document, I copied the h1, h2, h3, h4 empty content and pasted retaining the 'Keep source formatting'.
This copies the content retaining the source styles and also copies those styles into the current document. Both styles and style names are copied.
Wherever we want we can apply these styles. - To post as a guest, your comment is unpublished.I found a workaround.
