Well, look at it this way. It helps you see patterns that others don't
see.

I think this is true.

Probably for the same reason you can't delete it from the Desktop.

>I always thought 0 was "no error".

As you have just relearned, not always. The PM and WPS APIs return
TRUE/FALSE for OK/Fail. There are additional APIs for reporting error
details.

What I recommend you do is select just ppw.2 and request Set Object->Set
Object Styles from the menu. Click the change buttons for the flags you
want to change and click OK.

There's a setting the Defaults dialog that determines if selections select
all lower level items or not.
