StyleRef in header not working
Rick Strahl
style ref fine and it appears to work fine while I'm in edit mode for the
header. The tag inserted is:
{ SYLEREF "Heading 1" \* MERGEFORMAT }
The problem is that I only get the first Heading 1 entry on all pages,
instead of the current one that should be showing for the active page.
Any idea what's wrong here? I have another document that has the identical
setup and it works fine. Not this one...

the Heading 1s are for sure formatted with that style? (And presumably the
field you're using is actually a STYLEREF and not SYLEREF as you have it
below? <g>)

No it's neither of those - the latter is a typo since you can't cut and
paste the codes <g>...
It's not working though - I've messed with this for over an hour in
different combinations. It doesn't matter which style tag I use either. Any
one I use only shows the first instance, not the current one. Yet there are
Heading 1 et al tags in the right places.
The only thing that I can think of is that this document was imported from a
complex style sheet based HTML document. I did double check and even
reassign tags of various lines explicitly to make sure the tags match - same
result.
Any ideas would be appreciated - I'm at the end of mine <g>...

I did this today just like you said, but it worked for me.
Of course, I ran into problems with DOCPROPERTY not updating
but that's a separate issue.
My suggestion is to first try this out with a simple document, so
you see that it can actually work. <g>
Note that in my document I had section breaks between each
"Heading 1" style, so perhaps that is what is different.
Note AFAIK you don't need to use section breaks to make this work.
Good Luck,

Otherwise the header from the first page carries through.
