Gutter Margin Problems

[Blake]

I'm having problems setting the gutter margins in a
document programatically. I want to make sure that each
section in the document has a .25 inch gutter margin
because sometimes sections get inserted from elsewhere
that do not have this gutter margin set. I've tried it
simply like this:

With ActiveDocument.PageSetup
.Gutter = 18
End With

The problem seems to be that when it reaches a section
that does not have a .25 inch gutter margin that I get a
Value Out of Range error (caused because the gutter margin
does not equal .25?). How can I make sure that this will
work?

Thanks for any help,

Blake

I tried it and still got the same error. This should be
straight-forward. It may be related to some wierd problem
I'm having right now with next page section breaks that I
posted today (1-20) in Page Layout. Basically, my next
page section breaks are fine in normal and print layout
view, but do not cause the next section to start on a new
page in print preview and when the document is printed.
