 Sounds like you didn't "Update all" when you were on the Ref page. You need to apply that style update on the ref page, not the body page. If you do it only on the body page, it won't "take. Then make sure that the style is applied to all of the tags on the body page, or you won't get what you want. This is one of those rare freaky little twists in FrameMaker. There aren't a lot of them, but this little honey is one of the more obscure of the lot.
