Header linked to unrelated header
Thanks to everyone who replied. Clearly, I was very confused.
I had added the title to headers using FileProperties. On the Summary tab, I typed the guide's title in the Title field. However, I found that the title was not updating in the headers for whatever reason. Instead, I have now inserted fields on the cover page and in the headers. For each field, I chose StyleRef, and then selected the style for the document title. It works now. Thanks again everybody, Jean "Suzanne S.

There can be only one Title property in a given document. If your header contains a TITLE field, then of course it will be the same for all chapters. As others have suggested, a StyleRef field is probably what you're looking for instead. -- Suzanne S.

"Jprince" wrote in message ... Hi, I have set up headers to include chapter headings. There is a glitch, however. The header of one section appears to be linked to a header in an unrelated section earlier in the document. If I change the chapter name in one, it changes in the other. --The headers are not linked in Word. --To put the chapter name in the header initially, I inserted a field for the chapter name. --The field is based on the Title field in FileProperties. I'm concerned that it is a bug in my template. As a workaround, I have unlinked all of my sections. But now the developers who use the template have to manually update the guide name (also a field in the header) in every section. Can anyone give me some suggestions for troubleshooting and fixing the problem, please? Thanks, Jean |
