I finally got upgraded to CS3 -- I love the Bullet and Numbering feature -- we use bullets in everything (we over-bullet IMHO). I made several paragraph styles -- 1 for each type of bullet used in the doc. I'm making 2 versions of the same doc -- they're almost idential so I figured it would be easier to copy/paste the text into my 2nd doc and then make a few text changes. When I do a crtl+a to select all text from Document A and copy/paste it into Document 2, none of the bullet styles copy over into the paragraph style of Document 2. What am i doing wrong?

Bullet style not copying from 1 doc to next

Nevermind -- I found the answer! In CS3s Help menu, it's under Import styles from other documents.
1. I went to the Paragraph Styles panel
2. Chose Load all Text Styles in the Styles panel menu
3. Double-clicked the ID doc containing the styles I wanted to import
4. Put check marks next to the styles I wanted to import in the Load Styles dialog box.
5. For any styles that conflicted, I chose Use Imcoming Style Definition, which overwites the existing style with the loaded style.
Now my bullets show up!
