STYLREF switch \l
Using Word 2003 on Windows XP (office) and Word 2000 on Windows ME (home).
Instead of displaying the last use of the style on the CURRENT page, this always displays the first use of the style on the NEXT page. Help for Word 2003 distinguishes between electronic and printed documents ( WHY??? ) although help for Word 2000 does not, but for both versions neither the electronic nor the printed document is correct. How do I get it to work correctly? -- Ted ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

STYLREF switch \l
My experience is that it will only grab the style from the following page
when that style does not exist on the current page or any preceding page. It does then however grab the first occurence of the style on the following page -- Hope this helps.

STYLREF switch \l
Thanks, Doug but there must be more to it than that. I'm using STYLEREF
twice in the pager header, once without \l to get the first reference, and once with \l to get the last reference. The first usage works perfectly, showing that the required style does exist on the page. The pages in question are all separated by page breaks - could there be an interaction here? -- Ted "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: My experience is that it will only grab the style from the following page when that style does not exist on the current page or any preceding page.

Yes! Removing the page breaks makes STYLEREF do exactly what I want. Thanks
for listening, Doug. -- Ted "EPA" wrote: Thanks, Doug but there must be more to it than that.

STYLREF switch \l
The page breaks could definitely interfere with the STYLEREF field,
because the break is (or may be) considered part of the following paragraph. If you use "Page break before" formatting (Format | Paragraph, Line and Page Breaks tab) instead, does that make a difference? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "EPA" wrote in message news Thanks, Doug but there must be more to it than that.

Yes, Stefan, replacing the page breaks by formatting with Page Break Before
works just fine. -- Ted "Stefan Blom" wrote: The page breaks could definitely interfere with the STYLEREF field, because the break is (or may be) considered part of the following paragraph.
