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.
