Using Word 2003 on Windows XP (office) and Word 2000 on Windows ME (home).
Instead of displaying the last use of the style on the CURRENT page, this
always displays the first use of the style on the NEXT page. Help for Word
2003 distinguishes between electronic and printed documents ( WHY??? )
although help for Word 2000 does not, but for both versions neither the
electronic nor the printed document is correct. How do I get it to work
correctly?

My experience is that it will only grab the style from the following page
when that style does not exist on the current page or any preceding page.
It does then however grab the first occurence of the style on the following
page

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Doug but there must be more to it than that. I'm using STYLEREF
twice in the pager header, once without \l to get the first reference, and
once with \l to get the last reference. The first usage works perfectly,
showing that the required style does exist on the page.
The pages in question are all separated by page breaks - could there be an
interaction here?

Yes! Removing the page breaks makes STYLEREF do exactly what I want. Thanks
for listening, Doug.

The page breaks could definitely interfere with the STYLEREF field,
because the break is (or may be) considered part of the following
paragraph. If you use "Page break before" formatting (Format |
Paragraph, Line and Page Breaks tab) instead, does that make a
difference?

Yes, Stefan, replacing the page breaks by formatting with Page Break Before
works just fine.
