\documentstyle begins a document using the older LaTeX 2.09.  If you
want to use the standard LaTeX2e, you should be using \documentclass
instead.  Here's an excerpt from the LaTeX info page on the
\documentclass command:

Document Classes
================

   Valid LaTeX document classes include:

   * article

   * report

   * letter

   * book

   * slides

   Other document classes are often available. *Note Overview::, for
details.  They are selected with the following command:

   `\documentclass [options] {class}'

   All the standard classes (except slides) accept the following options
for selecting the typeface size (10 pt is default):

   10pt, 11pt, 12pt

   All classes accept these options for selecting the paper size
(default is letter):

   a4paper, a5paper, b5paper, letterpaper, legalpaper, executivepaper




Hope this helps,

Jesse
