    Chapter 8 Page 230 - Maintain Branding

     I must be missing a setting. I'm unable to drag or find a way to select my Styles in Managed Styles from my current page to my created and dragged expressions.css file. Do I have to create a DWT (next chapter) before I can accomplish this. Also, While we are at it - how do I change a Style Name once it is created. Thank for you help. Your videos are a wonderful bonus to your great book.

    Make sure you are in the Manage Styles task pane. Sometimes I think I'm in Apply when I want to be in Manage or the other way around.. Video 17 in the basic series shows how to boy. you don't need to court a DWT first. It also helps to make the Manage Styles task pane tall enough you can see both stylesheets in the window at the same time.

    To change a style name right click in Apply Styles and select  "Rename".

    Thanks for your quick reply.

    That is waht is confusing me I was and am in Manage Styles. I even closed all my other task panes. The only way I could get the Styles in the CSS page was to select, copy and paste the code from the Chapter8.html page to the css page. Then go back and delete the code from Chapter8.html and then Attach Style Sheet to Chapter8.html. When I try to drag from the Current Page to the CCS window below it  get the universal circle with a line through it.

    If I can't drag, is there some easier way than what I did?

     Hmm, not sure why you couldn't drag. Check and see under Site > Site Settings and see if manage site with meta data (paraphrased) is checked. if not check it and try again.
