Continuous Break is BROKEN   
I'm using Word XP.  Sometimes, but not always, when I insert a
continuous break, it acts like a nex-page break.  I want Continuous to
be continuous.  

Suggestions?

Re: Continuous Break is BROKEN   
Word will change a Continuous break to a Next Page break if the change in
formatting is something that can't be accomplished on the same page (a
change in page orientation, for example). For a specific example, see
"Section break causes an unexpected page break in Word" at

Re: Continuous Break is BROKEN   
Well, that doesn't make sense in this circumstances.  There's no
formatting or layout changes.  I need the continuous section break in
order to insert a custom footnote on that page alone.  

Plan B?

Re: Continuous Break is BROKEN   
Keep looking for the cause of the problem (ie in your document). Not much 
milage in asking the forum to guess what you might have done wrong.

Re: Continuous Break is BROKEN   
Custom footnote? Footer?

If it is a footer, you can do this without a section break and continuous 
section breaks can make tracking problems with footers very difficult to 
figure out. If you are trying to do a special footer for just one page, take 
a look at http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Numbering/PageNumbering.htm. For 
even more, see http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Page_Numbering.htm.

By the way, Jezebel is trying to tell you that you haven't given us enough 
information so that anyone can make a helpful guess at what is going wrong 
for you.

Re: Continuous Break is BROKEN   
Thanks, Charles.  I wondered what Jez was trying to do.  

Using Word XP.  Custom Footnote.  Most footnotes are numbered with
each section starting over at 1.  (150+ sections).  Here and there I
need an * or ** footnote.  So I put in continuous page breaks before
and after the paragraph that needs the *, and choose a custom
footnote.  Then I have to start the next section's footnotes with
whatever numeral is appropriate -- not at one.  

The problem is, some of the continuous pagebreaks aren't.  They jump
me to the next page.  

I've tried changing all the styles so there is NO keep-with-next and
NO widow/orphan control.  No joy.  

I hope that's enough info.
