Then the headers and footers (page numbers) apply to the section and when you redefine headers and footers in the next section, they will mated. Highlight the section and then Format Section, Edit Header/Footer, etc. You can link these things across sections by using the Link to Previous function in the Edit Header/Footer section, if'n you want a section's headers/footers to be the same for any two consecutive sections. In fact, you could Define a Style for any CHAPTER and then apply the style to each section and thus make it a CHAPTER. If you change anything about the style, all styles previously assigned that (style)name will change also. This is an adjunct to the section question, btw. -- ______________________________________________________________________________ Andrew BW Colfelt colfelt@tramp.colorado.edu____________________________________________________ -- ______________________________________________________________________________ Andrew BW Colfelt colfelt@tramp.colorado.edu____________________________________________________

I just looked in the index under "chapter". Perhaps next time you could try that rather than bothering the net? mathew

It requires that you insert a StyleRef field in the header (or footer) with the formatting you desire. And it requires that you have a style defined for Chapter headings and that you have the chapter headings consistently formatted with that style. For instance, in a book I'm writing, I have heading 1 as Chapter Heading, and heading 2 as Section. So, I might have something like "Chapter One", "Laundry", the former formatted as heading 1, the latter as heading 1. In my header right aligned, I have: {styleref heading 1} - {styleref heading 1} And what prints is Chapter One - Laundry. To enter a field either select Insert.Field, and pick the field from the menu, or press Ctrl-F9 to enter field brackets and type the field name and style name. Note, this would also work if the name of the style were ChapeterHeading... Hope this helps.
