Replace Section Breaks
I need to replace "next page" section breaks with "odd page" section breaks. I can't. When I insert the odd page break and delete the next page break, the odd page break disappears. It's also messing...
CaroleSL With the selection in the Section for which you want to change the Section Start, use the Dialog Launcher at the bottom right of the Page Setup section of the Layout tab of the ribbon to display the Page Setup dialog and then go to the Layout tab of that dialog and you can select the required Section start from the dropdown
CaroleSL Use a macro containing the following code
With ActiveDocument
For i = 2 To .Sections.Count
If .Sections(i).PageSetup.SectionStart = wdSectionNewPage Then
.Sections(i).PageSetup.SectionStart = wdSectionOddPage
End If
Next i
End With
Thank you so much! My complex document that I was disconsolate about last week is configured! How I did it:
1. Set up multilevel styles and associate them with headings.
2. Use Odd Page sections so double-sided printing will work. If you're printing single sided, it won't hurt.
3. Select each chapter's text, insert a bookmark name for it (no spaces), and add the bookmark to the chapter TOC field as \b Chapter1
4. Set up headers and footers, using "link to previous" and "different first page" carefully.
5. Lots of patience and help by experts.
