MS Office Forum / Word / Numbering / February 2005Two styleRef in one page
Hi I cannot belief that I am the first one having this problem: In the header of the page i want to refer to Heading one and Heading two. So it should look like this _______________________ Heading 1 Heading 2 _______________________ The problem occurs, when one page starts with a sub chapter marked by Heading 2 followed by a new chapter marked by Heading 1. The result is this: _____________________ Heading 1 (new chapter) Heading 2 (last sub chapter of old chapter) _____________________ What options do I have to activate or what is appropriate VBA code to make the first line referring to the last chapters title which can be found on one of the previous pages? Thank you very much Axel You're right, this problem has come up before and I don't recall any satisfactory solution using STYLEREF fields being offered. If a STYLEREF solution does exist, surely Klaus Lincke would know it. May I suggest a workaround? Finish the whole document first so nothing will change on you. Then at the top of each page insert a TextBox, no lines, and use Insert > Cross-reference, Numbered items to reference your chapter and subchapter headings. That gives you absolute control over the page each reference appears on. Unlike Header/Footers, TextBoxes have the advantage of allowing different references to appear in the same space. It's a little more work, sure, but it beats manually typing in each chapter/subchapter at the top of the page. And who knows, Klaus Lincke or some other STYLEREF expert may come along with the perfect STYLEREF solution. > And who knows, Klaus Lincke or some other STYLEREF > expert may come along with the perfect STYLEREF solution. Unlikely... At least, it won't be me. For unconventional headers like this (previous chapter heading rather than the one that's on the page), your textbox solution is a fine work-around. Greetings, Klaus What occurs to me, since the styles being referred to are heading styles, is some sort of cross-reference to the page numbers being evaluated in a conditional field. This could work to at least eliminate heading 2 text from a previous page going under a heading 1 from this page. Wouldn't help, though, with a heading 2, heading 1 on the same page.
