Chapters....
Hello all! First time asking a question here so please forgive me if this
seems awkward. To make a long story short, I am pretty familiar with the MS Office products and have been using MS Office 2007 for about 11 months. I primarily used MS Word throughout my educational pusuits and now find myself looking to write a book of sorts; and I am doing all of the writting and editing on my own for substantial reasons. In fact, I already have a large portion (first draft) of this book complete and am now in the editing process but I am having trouble when I edit text in one chapter of the book because this moves and changes the formatting of every subsequent chapters (124 of them to be exact). Is there any way that I can anchor each chapter title on a page? For example, so I can cut or add a paragraph in chapter one without moving the subsequent 123 chapters? Thank you in advance for your time and any help you can provide me. -- TJ Gunnz |

Chapters....
I usually insert section breaks (Next Page or Odd Page) between chapters.

What will occur that you don't want to occur? |

Thanks for the help! The page break thing is exactly what I was looking for!
The reason I don't want them to move is because I want each chapter to start on a new page. So as it was before, if I was to add or delete a paragraph, all of the chapter headers would wind up in the middle of a page, bottom of a page, or some where in beteen. Make sense?
