A new Heading based on an existing heading
Hi
I'm almost afraid to get into this after having driven myself nuts getting my para numbering right, but I would like to create a heading for my Appendices that looks like my Chapter heading (which is Heading 1 in the preset styles) except it says Appendix A: YadaYada A.1 A.2 A.2.1 A.2.2 As an interesting note, I have set up my headings presets so that Heading 1, which is my chapter title heading, has a gray shading behind it. For some reason, when I break the text to move my next next Heading 1 to the top of the next page it creates a blank gray line on the previous page that apparently is also tagged as Heading 1. If I try to reformat it to Body Text, then the real Heading 1 (the chapter title on the next page) ALSO reformats itself to Body Text. Any Ideas please? FWIW, Heading 1 is set up to be followed by Body Text. Thanks Phil |

A new Heading based on an existing heading
A manual page break takes on the formatting of the following paragraph.
Instead of inserting a manual page break, apply "Page break before" formatting (Format | Paragraph | Line and Page Breaks) to the paragraph or style. For appendixes, see http://www.ShaunaKelly.com/word/numb...ppendixes.html. The paragraph and number formatting can be the same as Heading 1 but DO NOT base it on Heading 1. -- Suzanne S.
