Show a list of Custom(non-default) Styles within a Word document (or template)?

Hi guys,

The following Code I use a lot with shortcuts and the style panel:

My strategy is to use "AllStyles" to insert styles into my documents for the first time, and then "InUse" allows me to make sure everything is nice and neat within my document.


The problem I can foresee in the future will be:
In 6 months I'll start a new document, use "All Styles" and forget which ones I have created/modified as they'll all be mixed in with the default ones.

What I really want is a "view" that shows me all my own customized styles (including default one's I have edited, If that's possible) within the template.

I'm not sure if this "View" would be possible within the Styles Panel but maybe something similar to the code below, where it prints out the names of styles elsewhere. If this Printout could also have the "Show Preview" option (either as a second column or something), then that would be AMAZING.

Maybe this is close to what you want

of course this is excel and you want word, and it returns everything. but maybe you can tweak.

A fundamental problem you're going to have with this is that Word doesn't store changes to Style defintions. Consequently, you'd need to save a document with the original definitions, then loop through the Styles in your latest version of the template and compare those against the originals.
