I guess that will teach me to deal in "absolutes" with regard to Word. For
the life of me, I can't remember where I got the idea that section breaks
were generally preferable to page breaks unless the situation expressly calls
for them.

I'll take your advice to heart in disseminating information in the future.
Now that we're on the subject, any words of wisdom with regard to the use of
double paragraphs between paragraphs as opposed to setting up a style with
space either above and/or below? I would hate to once again suggest
misleading "rules of thumb" to this group.

As always, thanks so very much for your very timely and informative
responses.

keep things straight.

If the document at hand does not need the functions that a Section Break
provides, then a Page Break is preferable. Use the right tool for the
right function rather than trying to say one is always better.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am trying to convince the Word users within my company that using Section
Breaks is preferable to using Page Breaks within a document. Thus far I have
been able to get users to understand that the use of Section Breaks affords
the ability to change page setups and formats between one page and another,
but I'm convinced that there are perhaps other reasons.

I would like to present them with an article, link or some further
explanation which may assist me is driving home the point of using Section
Break versus Page Breaks.

Are any of you able to present me with an article, a link, or even a series
of reasons that I can use to help further my cause?

I sure would appreciate it.

Thanks - Rod
