Crossreference field randomly inserts page breaks
When self-updating, crossreference fields are inserted into a document using
the crossreference button, Word2007 has a habit of randomly inserting page breaks at the site of the crossreference field. The page breaks can usually be deleted without disturbing the formatting of the neighbouring text, but they sometimes reappear. Any suggestions JonTarg (p.s. the Track Changes feature is switched off.) |

Crossreference field randomly inserts page breaks
Cross-references in Word are REF fields, which make use of hidden bookmarks
in the text. The problem with bookmarks is that if you add text, or a page break for that matter, at the beginning of a bookmarked paragraph, the bookmark will expand to include the added contents. This is likely to explain what you are seeing. To work around this, avoid manual page breaks in your document. Instead, use "Page break before" formatting (Paragraph dialog box) whenever you need a page break. Updating the cross-reference fields should then work just fine. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "JonTarg" wrote in message ...
