Drawing Canvas Issue in document with multiple sections
I have a document that has three sections. There are two pages with a
drawing canvas in section 2. All sections have footers. What I want to do is extract the drawing canvases in section 2 into a separate document. I have attempted to delete the pages in section 1 and section 3 and the drawing canvas moves to another place on the page. What's the best way to extract these drawing canvases to another document? Thanks in advance. Barb Reinhardt |

Hi ?B?QmFyYiBSLg==?=,
I may be misunderstanding your question, but answering it as I understand it: Copy/Paste? If that's not it, could you please explain the problem you're experiencing in more detail?

Yup, that works. I realized after I posted my question that I was making it
FAR HARDER than I needed to. I was trying to delete the 1st and 3rd sections and the margins for the second got all messed up. This document is a strange one. I do have another question for you. These documents need to be "Open and Repaired" on what seems to be a rather frequent basis. Can you shed some light on what might cause that?

Hi ?B?QmFyYiBSLg==?=,

These documents need to be "Open and Repaired" on what seems to be a rather frequent basis. Can you shed some light on what might cause that? It may well be related to the section breaks. Especially if you've been "fiddling" a lot. Section breaks are tricky customers, because the break actually belongs to the text preceding it. And if you delete a break, sections have a disconcerting tendency to pick up the "wrong" section formatting (margins, headers, footers, etc.) It sounds as if this document has reached a critical stage. I recommend you copy the text you want to keep into a NEW document - without the section breaks and without the last paragraph mark - and recreate the sections in that document.
