Press F11

This should bring up the styles dialogue box.

Right click in the box and choose New.

Make whatever changes that you want and click OK

Just tested this and it works for me with OOo 1.1.3 on Ubuntu 5.04.

This might cause problems but if the above doesn't work I'll make
further suggestions.

Thursday's rant? <g>
