That's what I thought, but it doesn't. When I include the \n switch, it only
places the letter of Heading 1 in the header.

I did not manually create the outline numbering. It is autoformatted text.

Thanks for your help!

The \n switch should include the A. or B. proving they are inserted as part

Yes, I see how Dean and Pam were right! Thanks, everyone!!

I still haven't overcome one issue, though. In my "Heading 1" style, which
I
insert into the header, it is autoformatted in the doc and includes the
outline letter of the section, i.e., "A. Dogs", "B. Cats", "C. Birds",
etc.
When I use the StyleRef, It only includes "Dogs", "Cats", "Birds", etc.
I've
tried all the switches, but they don't solve the issue. For example, when
I
tell the field code to insert the paragraph number, it ONLY inserts "A"
"B"
or "C". None of the switch options I see make it insert both the paragraph
number AND the actual title (Heading 1).

Thanks for your help with this!

Dean and Pam have given you the answers. Continuous section breaks will
not
do what you need anyway. You would have to insert Section Break Next Page
at
the end of the previous page and not a continuous break at the top of the
new page to make a new header. But that is totally unnecessary and
Suzanne's
Tutorial gives all the information you need.

The combination of StyleRef in the Header with different First/Odd/Even
pages will do all that you need without resource to section breaks.

Thanks for your reply!

The fix re the footnote compatibility option was a suggestion I read on
another community page on this web site.

I'm running Word 2007 (12.0.6504.5000) SP2 MSO (12.0.6425.1000). I have
XP
Professional 5.6.2600 SP3 Build 2600.

I'm trying to use continuous section breaks so that I can alter the
header
information on various pages. For example, my chapter has three major
headings (hypothetically) A. Cats; B. Dogs; C. Birds. On every even
page,
I
want the header to Read: "Chapter 1." On every odd, page, I want the
appropriate subsection heading (either A, B, or C) to appear in the
header. I
thoiught the way to do that was to do a section break, but I don't want
the
text to start on a new page. When I insert the "Continuous Section
Break,"
however, Word inserts a new page. I understood from another user's
comment
that this has something to do with how Word deals with footnotes, i.e.,
it
doesn't like footnotes from a previous section to appear on the page
with
another section, and this could be the cause of my problem.

Unfortunately, my "patch" fix is simply to insert the break
(continuous)
in
front of the first word that appears on the page. This is the only way
I've
been able to avoid the problem. However, if I then insert a new
paragraph
at
the beginning of the doc, for example, it really screws up the
formatting.

Any suggestions?

This sounds weird. Why do you need a section break before a
sub-heading?
What has an obscure Footnote compatibility option got to do with the
need
for the section breaks? Please explain what you are trying to achieve,
Also
which version of Word and OS and are they fully patched up to date?

A chapter in the book I'm writing has subheadings which need to be
continuous
page breaks. When I insert a continuous page break, Word inserts a
new
page.

I tried changing the settings in "Word Options" to "Lay out
footnotes
like
Word 6.x", but that only made the problem worse.

The only way I've managed to fix the problem is to insert the
continuous
section break in front of the first word at the top of the page. The
problem
is that if I further edit the document and insert earlier material,
it
moves
all of the information following the continuous section break to a
new
page.
This creates split paragraphs.

Does anyone know a more reasonable solution to this problem?
