Have you found a solution to this annoying problem with Word?

Let's say you have a style sheet, and you have a style that specifies
a particular font and size (e.g. Times-Roman 10 pt.)  Now, you
accidentally change the formatting of a word within a paragraph to
be Times-Roman 14 pt.  Is there a way to force the font and size for
all characters within a paragraph to match the style of that paragraph,
without reformatting the 14 pt. word to 10 pt. individually?  

I had a case where I had several different styles, some in 10 pt.
and some in 12 pt.  Somehow, I had managed to put some words in
10 pt. styled paragraphs into 12 pt., overriding the style for the
paragraph, and short of searching for the 12 pt. text, and altering
the text by hand, I was unable to find a way to do it.
