From: Gnibtay on 29 Apr 2010 22:30 I am creating a Master Document that contains several separate documents. I am trying to separate the subdocuments with Section Break-Next Page, and then have separate headers start in each Section. When I insert Section Break Next Page, and then go to edit the Header, I find that the program has changed the section Break it to Section Break Continuous . When I delete the Section Break-Continous and insert a Section Break-Next Page in its place, the program deletes my PREVIOUS Section Break- Next Page and changes it to Continuous. The Headers disappear at the same time. maddening. Is this a Bug? Any suggestions? Thank you.

Don't ever try to delete and replace a section break; it's an exercise in futility, as you've seen. Instead, place the insertion point after the section break, go to the Layout tab of Page Setup, and select the desired type of section start. -- Suzanne S.
