How to "lock" a page so that previous page typing doesn't move it

Answer: How to "lock" a page so that previous page typing doesn't move it
Hi Wedge1,
Yes, there is a way to "lock" a page in Microsoft Word so that it doesn't move when you make changes to other pages. Here's how you can do it:
Now, any changes you make to previous pages will not affect the page you have just locked in place.

There is no confusion about this at all. You cannot do this in Word: it is
text flow software, not page layout software. -- Suzanne S.

How to "lock" a page so that previous page typing doesn't move it
However, if you format the first paragraph on page to to have a page break
before (part of paragraph formatting) it will always begin a new page. Heading styles are often set this way. I assume that you currently get it to be on the second page by a series of Enter key strokes. This is a _bad_ idea. http://addbalance.com/usersguide/basic_formatting.htm http://addbalance.com/usersguide/styles.htm -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
