There are over 200 styles built into Word 2016 and you can create your own styles. Most of the time you will want to use very few of these, but you may also want to apply more rigorous control of their use, or have different styles available for different types of documents. The Manage Styles dialog box is where you can organize the styles.

The Manage Styles dialog box provides options for editing, recommending, and restricting the use of specific styles and for setting defaults. Apply options to the styles used in the current document or to new documents based on the template that is used for the current document. You can also import or export styles between documents and templates.

On the Edit tab, you can specify the sort order as well as edit a specific style or create new styles.

Under the Recommend tab, you can determine which styles are listed by default in the recommended style list, the order in which they appear, and the circumstances under which they are listed or hidden.

On the Restrict tab, specify whether certain styles are available or restricted in some way when a document is protected from formatting changes.

Finally, on the Set Defaults tab, redefine the paragraph and character formatting to which all styles refer for their default settings.

NOTE A style can also be edited for the current document only or for all documents based on the current template. Right-click the style in the Quick Styles gallery and selecting the Modify... option.
