can anyone tell me why word changes my previous section to odd or even and ruins my format when i am entering a new one with next page setting?
this thing is driving me crazy!!!!!

When formatting sections, you pretty much have to go to the very beginning of
the document and run through the sections in order being sure that "same as
previous" is turned on or off on each different page of the section (first,
odd, even, if you have all three) in both headers and footers.

If you add a Section Break at the very end of the document and check all those
things immediately, you might not have problems with it.

you mean "link with previous" at headers and footers?
i have deactivated it at all pages, but when i insert one at a section, next page for example, it keeps turning it to odd....

Please don't delete previous discussion.

That suggests that "Different Odd and Even" is checked. It, too, is inherited
from the previous Section when you put a Section Break at the end of a document.

yes i need them to be different, but client inserted some breaks that i need different, but i cant have, doesn't page layout shouls follow my order and change the section i want to next page for example and unchecked the different first page? word doesn't seem to follow common sence after translation, do you know why i don't seem to be able to insert section break that i need? what pusses it to change from "next" to "odd"?

Oh, you're not talking about handling pages within sections, but about the
different kinds of Section Break.

You probably have a lot of Section Breaks in your document because you
experimented.

The way to see them is to change to Draft View. You can then Select and
Delete the ones you don't want.

Are you restarting page numbering to 1 for your new section? In that
case, Word often forces the section start onto the following odd page.
This may also happen when "Different odd and even" is selected for
headers and footers in Page Setup.

As Peter suggested, you should look at the document in Draft view and
figure out if you have excessive section breaks.

For "everything" on sections in Word, see
