(Word 2003)

I'm using a STYLEREF field to put my "Heading 1" text in the header,
but my Heading 1 text uses a line break (shift+return: new line, same
paragraph; ) to format the "Heading 1" text as needed.

Heading 1 is defined with outling numbering, centered text, begins
with the word "Section" and I use line breaks to make it look like:


Section 1.

This is my title


I'd like the header to read "SECTION 1. THIS IS MY TITLE", but when I
use the field

STYLEREF "Heading 1" /* Upper

the line break comes with it and I get two lines in the header area
instead of one. Is there a formatting switch or something that I don't
know about or will I have to redefine Heading 1 so that I don't have
to use a line break?

How about a hack (tabs, frames, etc.) that will allow my Section 1
title to appear on two lines, but have the header look alright?

Thanks,
Keith

Idea for hack: If you change the indents for your Heading 1 paragraph and
put non-breaking spaces (Ctrl-Shift-Spacebar) between the words of your
followup text, you should be able to get it to break where you want without
a manual line break.

Thanks, Charles! I think I might need that too.
