How to modify a Style

How do I modify a Style of the word document without changing all of the
pages to be modified as well? Thanks

You will need to explain what you mean - and in which Word version.
Styles are associated with paragraphs and characters. If you modify a style
all the text formatted in that style will change according to your changes.

In word 2007. What I mean, is there a way to create a particular format, to
use in different spots. But not apply it to the whole documnent.

What do you mean by "format"? Word works on the Character and
Paragraph level. You can alter any one paragraph (or character), or
all the paragraphs with the same style, and you can have an unlimited
number of different styles.

Maybe what you're looking for is what Word calls a Theme? A Theme
contains lots of paragraph styles that are designed to look good when
you use them together, and you can change the Theme with a single
click, or you can assemble your own.

Create a paragraph (for full paragraphs) or character style (for within
paragraphs) and apply it to the relevant text.
