paragraph styles and page breaks

Hi

I cannot seem to resolve the following problem: When I force a page
break using Ctrl-Enter, and then use a Heading style at the top of the
new page, the text at the bottom of the first page is formatted in the
same style.

TIA

Terry

Apply "Page break before" to the heading instead of using a manual page
break. If you always want this level of heading to start a new page, add
"Page break before" to the style. Or avoid a page break altogether by
applying "Keep with next" to enough paragraphs to force the text to move.

Hello Suzanne,

I came across with the same problem, but i don't understand what are you
suggesting. I use office XP and the heading 1,2,3 styles but when i came
acoross the following text:

1. Title 1 (Heading 1)
2. Title 2 (Heading 1)

and i try to seprate between thees two rows with a page break (going to the
second rwo, home, and cntrl+enter), the last line in the first page (where
Title 1 resides) is linked somehow to the first line in the second page. what
is the correct methos to insert such page break ?

thanks, eyal

Hello Eyal,

Suzanne's suggestion has nothing at all to do with inserting a page
break character (Ctrl+Enter). Instead, either in the Format >
Paragraph dialog or --preferably -- after clicking Heading 1 > Modify
Format > Paragraph in the Format > Style dialog, go to the "Line &
Click to expand...
Page Breaks" tab and check the box labeled "Page break before".

If you do this to the Heading 1 style, then every Heading 1 paragraph
will start a new page, even though there isn't an actual page-break
character there. If you do it just to one heading, only that one will
start a new page.
