Subject:Encyclopaedia-style Headers in Word From:Jessica N Lange <jlange -at- OHIOEE -dot- COM> Date:Tue, 27 May 1997 10:17:01 -0400
<snip>The current problem is with what I call Encyclopaedia stye headers.
My boss wants the outside of each header in the document to have a reference
to the current section</snip>
Use the STYLEREF field code in the header, with a reference to the heading level you want to appear. For example:
{ StylerRef "Heading 2" }
will show the last text formatted with heading level 2. You can use a switch to specify the next text with that format. You can use any paragraph or character style. Word's help for STYLEREF field gives more information.
