No, Page Breaks and Section Breaks are not the same thing. However, for
what you want to do, you need to use a StyleRef field.

I'm confused. I did do PAGE BREAKS at each new section, is that the same
as
section breaks (what you said)? Also, when I go to page 7 (the new
section),
I view HEADERS AND FOOTERS, but there's nothing that says 'same as
previous.'
When I go under FORMAT PAGE NUMBER under headers and footers there's a
bullet by 'continue from previous section,' but this only pertains to the
page number.

Help!

Hello tjsmags,

You can edit the header for each section by ensuring you have section
breaks
at the end of each family's section, then going to the first page of the
new
family's page, choosing the "view" drop-down menu, and "headers and
footers"
and then ensuring each of these new sections' headers do not state "same
as
previous" and typing the appropriate family's name into the header for
each
different section. You will need to do that at the beginning of each
new
section, but that should do it for you.

Hope this helps!

Please reply through the newsgroup (personal consulting can be arranged
and
charged at my hourly rate).

Thanks!

I created a merged directory booklet. I want to have a different
header for
each new section of this booklet. Is this possible, or what else can I
do so
that the new title prints on ALL the pages of its section?

For example, the first section of names (pages 1-3) relate to our
family
named SMITH, so I want SMITH to be the header on pages 1-3. The second
section of names (pages 4-6) relate to one side of my family named
CLANCY, so
I want CLANCY to be the header on pages 4-6. The third section of
names
(7-9) relate to another side of my family named DOE, so I want DOE to
print
on pages 7-9. The last section should be titled OTHER. How can I
accomplish
this?
