MS Office Forum / Word / Long Documents / September 2006random header appearances
my document keeps generating heading lines (level 2) even though there is no text associated with them, thusly 5.5 Heading no 5 <picture or table> 5.6 <nothing> 5.7 Heading no 6 <rest of doc> Sometimes I get 5.5 Heading no 5 5.6 <blank lines which seem to belong to the number> Heading no 6 <rest of doc> I can sometimes straighten it out by inserting actual blank lines and hard returns but when I re-open the doc, the additional heading reappears. This is on XP Prof, Word 2003. Any ideas, apart from throwing the laptop out of the window..... Bob Irving It sounds as if you have numbered headings and are applying the corresponding heading style to empty paragraphs. This will happen naturally if you press Enter at the beginning of a heading.  SignatureSuzanne S.

If your document contains *any* empty paragraphs, it could be that Document Map is promoting them to heading level; see http://daiya.mvps.org/docmap.htm SignatureSuzanne S.
