From styles menu: load styles

I'm not sure why this is necessary: a little experimentation
confirms my impression that simply copying and pasting material
from one document to another automatically carries with it necessary styles.
here a little experimentation confirms my impression the styles are
not carried over. bit of a hurry now but I'll have a deeper look
later; most likely I'm missing some special circumstance. weird.

I'm at 4.1.1.
Just to confirm my experience (in version 4.1.2 under Windows):
I created a new text document with new character, paragraph, and page
styles and saved it as .odt. I even closed OpenOffice. Now I reopened
the document, selected all, and copied and pasted into a new
document. The new document showed all three custom styles. (A manual
page break was not carried over, which confused the issue slightly,
but the styles were all there.)
