Default Create a tabbed document ?

Suzanne,

Thank you for your response.

The problem with the header idea is that thi is a work in progress and the
pages are constantly getting longer and sometimes shorter. I think I would
spend more time adjusting my format than actually writing .

I checked out OneNote, but I think it is way more than what I need but I
will take a closer look.

Thanks again for your help

The closest you can get to this in Word is to use Heading 1 for Plot,
Characters, Background, etc. Format Heading 1 as "Page break before," if you
like, so that each "tab" will start on a new page. Then display the Document
Map, which will display your headings and allow you to click on the one you
want to go to.

Alternatively, if you haven't tried OneNote, you might find it more useful
for your purposes.

Is there anyway to create a single file document that uses Tabs to break

up
sections, just like you can have separate sheets in a workbook for excel?

For example:

I am writing a story and would like to have a separate work sheet for

Plot,
Characters and Background info all in the same file but on seperate
Tabs/Pages.

Is there a way of doing this with out having to create separate files?

Thanks,

Panik
