"Section Break Before" a Style
I am trying to automate page counting. Currently i am using a forumula to
subtract one reference from another. the references point to headers: {={PAGEREF _123 \h} - {PAGEREF _Ref344 \h}} BUT since it is easy to delete the text being reference, i would prefer to automatically add a "Section Break Before" the header. I know a "Page break before" exists, but i have not found a way to add "Section break before". then i can easily use this field to get the page count: {SECTIONPAGES} Any ideas? thank you Word 2003 SP2 |

"Section Break Before" a Style
You cannot include a section break with a style. One option might be
to save a section break as an AutoText entry, which makes insertion easy (but see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...thSections.htm for more on sections and section-level formatting). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "rogge" wrote in message ...
