Section Break in Heading Style?

[Ed Contini]

Greetings,

Is there a way to create a Heading style that automatically
inserts a Section Break? I am able to create one that inserts
a Page Break, but this doesn't achieve my objective.

Thank you.

Hi Ed

You can't do it using a style, but you can save a sample heading paragraph
and its preceding section break in an AutoText and insert that when you want
to start a new chapter or whatever.

Margaret,

That'll work -- thanks!

Hi Ed

You're welcome -

However, I probably should have also reminded you and anyone else reading
that the section break *before* the heading controls the formatting (start
condition, headers and footers) for the *previous* section. So you may find
that it is more logical and controllable to use AutoText for an 'empty
chapter' (heading and section break at the end of the section).

Good grief --- that certainly explains some things
I've been puzzling over! Thanks again!
