If you set the "next style" rules correctly, things will flow much better and you won't have to keep selecting the styles, except when starting a new heading. Also, be sure to set your base font in your default style... remember that all styles "inherit" their attributes from other styles. Think of "Default" as being just the base style that all others are derived from -- set the font of that style, and all of the others (if you haven't already over-ridden the inheritance) will update accordingly.
Thanks twowheels. I just write a simple document. No headings. Just text. So I just keep it Text Body through and through. I'll do the chapters and such in Sigil.

I'm going to wait till I finish these two books I'm working on to switch the default font to Times New Roman. (Don't want to jinks things!)
