Got it. Did some experimentaton and figured it out.

One more on style that I skipped yesterday, when I generated table of=
 contents, additional styles appeared as Contents Head1 Contents tile etc.=
 While they got manipulated without a hitch, I wonder why they were not=
 present in original stylist.

Got it. Reading manual helps...;-) Thanks for the tip.

Sure. Basically it has to be a single unit all across. But I think there is=
 one issue. (Pardon me on this but I am talking this from pure users=
 perspective) As far as I understand 72 points constitue an inch. So=
 ideally all font of same point size should look same in all screen=
 resolutions. But actually that's not the case.

So I would say mm is better unit. It's absolute.

OK, If I got it correctly, in cell layout dialog, select position->Go to=
 line automatically does the trick but it doesn't resize te cell=
 automatically as I type.
