StyleRef Field Tutorial - Microsoft Word

StyleRef Field in Microsoft Word - a Tutorial

You can download a short tutorial on how to use the StyleRef field in Microsoft Word. 

The StyleRef field can be used to work around some limitations in Word since styles are far less fragile in Word documents than are bookmarks. The primary use of the StyleRef field is to provide headers and footers that summarize the contents of a page. Sometimes they are used with the \l switch to provide phone-book style headers/footers which list both the first and the last occurrence of a style.

A secondary use is within the document itself when you want to include text from a heading (or other style) elsewhere in the document and want that text to change depending on the heading.
