as for me I dont understand the question :<br>
what do you mean with "lock a style to a frame" ?<br>

What I'm asking JLuc is - Can you "lock" a Paragraph Style to a Frame, (ie all bold let's say), then whenever you type inside the Frame, or Cut 'n Paste to the Frame the text will automatically take on that style?<br>
<br>
Hope that makes it clear.<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5">

<br>There is one possibly that may help you. One can do a Ctrl-a to select all text in a frame and apply a single paragraph style to the selected text.<br><br>Little help from me, I know, but I think I understand your request.<br clear="all">
