Not the greatest title in the world, but my question is this.

I have a standard looking technical manual with lines in the header and
footer separating header and footer information from the text on the page.

I want a smallish heading style with a border line above defined for the
style using formatborder, and this will separate entries on a page. However,
I don't want the border line above the heading to appear when the heading
starts a new page, as I don't think that looks good just below the line in
the header. Is it possible somehow to automatically remove the border line
whenever the heading style appears at the top of a new page?

Thanks.

There is not. You could format your style to always begin a new page.
Alternatively, you could create a second style based on your heading stlye
that has the border turned off; then manually adjust which one is applied in
your final edit.

That's a pity, but thanks very much for your help.
