I believe I used CUD's template mapper plug-in for FM.
I don't care if Word doesn't include it as a native feature...point me to
an add-in.
I don't think it exists in FrameMaker either, unless you install the
FrameScript plug-in and set up a script. But I am the reverse of you,
haven't been in FM since 2007.
The Styles pane will allow you to choose an existing style, right-click and
select all instances of it and change them en masse to another style, but
only one at a time.

I'm not looking for a script...I just want an advanced form of the

ability to connect each individual style from one side to the other. This
would allow me to not only replicate, but condense the styles by
connecting
3-4 on the left to a single one on the right.
It seems so obvious, can't believe it doesn't exist. Go figure. I haven't
been in Word for about 7 years and it hasn't gotten any better.
