Continuous Break - isn't continuous
I'm inserting Section breaks in order to force footnote numbering to
restart at 1 "one". The section breaks often occur in the middle of a page. I specify a continuous section break. But Word 2000 takes me to a new page anyway! How do I get a truly "continuous" section break that will let me stay on the same page? *(((({ |

I read the article -- it says I have to convert the footnotes to
endnotes to make the continuous break stop working like a page break. But I must have footnotes! Converting them to endnotes is hardly a solution. Plan B? *(((({ In the last exciting episode on Thu, 6 Jan 2005 21:43:35 -0600, "Suzanne S.

Dang! I knew that wasn't the article I was looking for! Let me try again.
See "Section break causes an unexpected page break in Word" at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=292074. If even that doesn't help, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...panColumns.htm -- Suzanne S.

I find it interesting that the article at
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=292074 doesn't mention why Word won't allow footnotes from different sections on the same page. The only reason I can think of is that since footnotes might be restarted on each section, Word is trying to prevent duplicated footnote numbers on the same page. -- Stefan Blom "Suzanne S.

That's my assumption, too. I have complained about the incompleteness of
this article, and it has been slightly improved based on my feedback, but I still find it less than satisfactory. -- Suzanne S.
