Microsoft Word for Windows versions 1.x and 2.x do not have a feature that allows a single style to be copied from a document or template to another document or template.

NOTE: Word for Windows version 6.0 has this capability built-in.

To copy a single defined style from a template that you are not using in your current document in Word versions 1.x and 2.x, do the following:

  From the File menu, choose Open to open a file based on the template that has the desired style.   Locate a paragraph of text that has the desired style applied to it. From the Edit menu, choose Copy to copy the text to the Clipboard, and close the document.   Return to your current document. From the Edit menu, choose Paste to paste the copied text.   After pasting the desired style into the current document, choose Define from the Format menu and choose Style. Highlight the style that was pasted into the document.   Do one of the following:

Word for Windows Version 2.0
Choose Define, select the Add to Template check box, and choose OK. -or-

Word for Windows Version 1.0 and 1.1
Choose Options, select the Add to Template check box, and choose OK. 

The pasted style becomes part of the current document’s template.
