For future reference, a better method is to define a separate style (eg
"Heading 2 no PB") then set that as Heading 1's "Style for following
paragraph".


I originally did create a separate style called "Heading 2 first" that had
no PB. What I hadn't thought of was setting "Heading 2 first" as Heading 1's
following Style. I prefer this option over manually clearing PBs because,
although I have an extra style to maintain, Word is auto-selecting "Heading 2
first" for me after Heading 1 and I don't have to remember to manually toggle
the Style.

Thanks for the followup and good tip, I really appreciate it!
