[Solved] Selecting Heading paragraph style does not set Font

[ynaught]

I am in the process of writing a template so our business can make our users manuals using OOo Writer, yet have the manuals look as similar as possible to how they did in DECWrite. I've learned some hard lessons, and even started over once to better follow the intended styles' uses.
However, I have run into a problem AGAIN that I had on my first attempt:
My headings keep coming out as Times New Roman, even though I've configured all the Headings Styles to use Arial, (including Heading N, Heading, AND since "Heading" was "linked with" default, I created a new format from Default, called it Heading Default, changed its font to Arial, and linked "Heading" to it).
It does not seem to matter whether I select the paragraph style before or after I type text. If I open a new document (without my template changes), Writer behaves like I expect it to. Clearly, one of the MANY style changes I've made caused this, but I don't know if it's a bug in Writer, or me misusing it.
Listing the changes I've made from the original file would be absurd; there were too many. I'll put the file from which I'm working here:
http://www.niobrara.com/share/ManualTemplate.ott
http://www.niobrara.com/share/ManualTemplate.odt
...because I need help! I doubt it matters, but I saved both formats, the files are 72KB.
Open the file, go to the end and make a Heading 1, Heading 2, or Heading 3. They will come out Times New Roman, but to my eye, all the styles are set so they should be Arial.
Thanks in advance for any help provided!
Added later: I'm using OpenOffice 2.3.1, on Windows XP.

I got your .odt file and it works fine for me - Headings are Arial.

Because your Time NR headings show they are Heading X you may have a glitch in the "user" directory. Do you know how to find it?

Please tell use your operating system.

Argh! Did you create one at the end of the file?

No, but I would not have made changes there since installation...

Sorry, I came back and added that to my post later. Windows XP, OOo v 2.3.1

The "Heading 1" style has Arial set as the font, but "Negreta cursiva" set as the typestyle. Perhaps there is some mismatch in your localization settings?

Edit: Oops--sorry; never mind. The problem seems to be on my end.

PS: Your file works correctly for me, you simply have direct formatting on the headings that specifies TNR and overrides the style definition. Select all the text on the last page and do Format > Default to remove the direct formatting.

Quite Right! Thank you. I still don't understand how I got it into that state, but Format->Default fixed it up real nice.

Just before I checked back here for your fix, I tried *USING* the file as a template, and it worked just fine there. Somehow, the problem only manifested itself when I was editing it as a template.

acknak,

Nice catch, I didn't even think about direct formatting.
