Hi, Suzanne.

Thanks for the rapid response. Don't plan to use
sections and section breaks. My newly assigned
document will be complicated enough in its own right
without adding the complexity of section management.
It may seem simple to experts but sections are very
confusing to this newbie.

May I ask why it's best to avoid manual page breaks?
What can go wrong?

I'll experiment with formatting H1 headers with "page
break before." That sounds like a good idea.

Thanks again!

If you just want a page break (not a Next Page section break), use
Ctrl+Enter. But it's best to avoid manual page breaks where possible. If you
have a specific heading level that you want always to start a new page,
format it as "Page break before."

Hi. Using Word 2003 on Win XP Home

Please excuse this newbie question but I must create
a long (60-80 pages) MS Word 2003 document and
the manual effort (Insert Break New Page Okay)
involved in inserting many new pages in the document is
getting to me.

Don't know how to go about finding a Word command
key to eliminate this drudgery. Please advise. Thank you.
