Subject: Index question
Hello,
I am having a problem with the index I am creating. As the index has
expanded to a second page the section number of the headers has changed
from section 11 to section 12. I am using Page X of Y numbering in the
footers where Y is SECTIONPAGES. The unexpected section break has
messed up the numbering of Y. No section break shows when I show hidden
text, but the evidence suggests there is a section break hidden
somewhere in the INDEX field.
I know I can just take out the "of Y" part of the page numbering, but I
would rather not. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to keep the Page
X of Y numbering system for the footers? I also want to know why there
is a hidden section break in the index (the short answer is probably:
that is just Word).
