Header format has mind of own
I have a document with appendices that I am formatting as separate sections.
As part of this, I have headers that are not connected to the previous sections. This works as far as the text goes. However, I am trying to use a similar format which uses two cells in a row. Within these cells I am putting the title of the document, the name of our organization, and the title of the appendix. I want the cells to be the same size. I am experiencing something odd. On the last section, I can not manipulate the size of the cells. If I stretch them, they bounce back, I can not change the margin. Sometimes the cells alternately flash from one size to another at frequency of about 60 flashes/min. I have rebooted and reopened the document and it still does it. This only happens in one section. Is there something I unwittingly changed to prevent my from affecting the format within the header? Any knowledge would be greatly appreciated. Papa |

If only you could change your margins, this might help the problem. Recheck
all applicable user preferences, because you might have checked or unchecked something unknowingly, causing the conflict. It sounds like something was changed, and reverting back to a default. Before you go any further, I would suggest that you save and duplicate this document to further troubleshoot, because the flashing cells don't sound right. From this point on, make sure that you have all documents backed up automatically, and it couldn't hurt to scan for viruses. There are also limitations by design to consider.
