changing layout in one section affects the whole document.
I have both 'continuous' and 'new page' type section breaks in my document.
Any layout changes in one section affects the other sections. How can I lock the layout within a section? Help! -- John Selman Scottsdale, AZ |

What layout changes are you referring to? What happens in the other
sections? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "John Selman" wrote in message ... I have both 'continuous' and 'new page' type section breaks in my document. Any layout changes in one section affects the other sections. How can I lock the layout within a section? Help! -- John Selman Scottsdale, AZ |

The previous sections take on the new section's formatting. I am OK now as I
found complete coverage of section and page formatting in an 'Office Online' article by Stephanie Krieger. I must have been deleting the last paragraph mark sometimes. I found out that the formatting is contained in that mark! Live and learn.... Thanks for the reply. -- John Selman Scottsdale, AZ "Stefan Blom" wrote: What layout changes are you referring to?

I was wrong. Section and page breaks still don't seem to hold. If I insert
a tab stop in section 35 on page 62 it will affect every section in every page back to page one. Almost all of my section breaks are "next page" but the don't seem to have any effect except to force a new page. I cannot format by sections, only by the entire document. I have a deadline to create a yearbook for my wife's sorority and I won't be able to do it. I used to do this kind of document with no problems but that was then. -- John Selman Scottsdale, AZ "John Selman" wrote: The previous sections take on the new section's formatting.
