Text flow oddity

Grant,

   The only other thing I can think of is that there's a problem with
the sizes or other properties of the text frame(s) on that second page.
Since you've probably already checked that, I'm sorry that I can't offer
any further ideas. Good luck! I'd be interested to know if you hear of
any solution from anyone on the list.

Possibly, but not likely.  
All the paras are of the same type.
Also, adding additional blank paras forces the paras in the generated
list down, and they successfully make the jump to the third page.

Grant,

   Is there perhaps a Top of Page setting somewhere in Flow A? Perhaps a
paragraph with an override that you're not aware of?

I've got an odd one....
I'm running FM 7.1/Win XP
I'm generating a single-sided document with two text flows in parallel
columns.
Flow A is generated list (LOP or TOC, both behave the same for this
issue).
Flow B is a pasted text list.
Basically I'm making sure that I've got a heading for each item in the
pasted list.

Problem
When I regenerate the list, Page one behaves as expected, with the two
text flows running in parallel. The problem comes on the following
pages.
The Pasted list (Flow B) runs onto the following page normally.
However, the Generated list *skips* a page, and begins flowing again on
page 3.

Both flows are set to autoconnect.

Suggestions???

Grant
