I have a style called "Chapter Heading" and I want to apply it to text six
spaces down on a new page. I see that most if not all MVPs are vehemently against inserting a hard page break and then inserting six blank paragraphs. That's fine with me, but how can I do this will styles? SF |

1. You can set the style as "page break before" under
Format--Paragraph--Line and page breaks tab. 2. You can format the style to have 36 points (12 pts * six lines) before spacing under Format--Paragraph--Indents and Spacing tab, Space before. ************ Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com "SF" nospam@@@nospam wrote in message ...

Yes, Anne, it works!
Much thanks. Something's funny with my 36 points. It only brought me down an inch or so. I had to go up to several hundred to get the amount of space at the top of the page that I wanted. I think it's because my manuscript is in double-space mode. But numbers aside, I'm a happy camper. I can trial and error until I get to the right place. "Anne Troy" wrote in message ... 1.

Also, I see that since I gave my message the name "Styles", it appears to
have snuck in under et's post. Sorry, et. Didn't mean to interrupt. I know I clicked the "New Post" button. "Anne Troy" wrote in message ... 1.

Most people get a different answer when they multiply 12 x 6. See

36 points is half an inch. Six (typewriter) lines is an inch, or 72 points.
