Subject:RE: Indexing a 212-page tech document using WORD '03 From:"Dan Goldstein" <DGoldstein -at- riverainmedical -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Mon, 22 Aug 2005 16:20:17 -0400
The headers and footers for the sections inserted by the {Index} field
are initially set to Same as Previous by default. Silly User manually
redefines them to not be Same as Previous. If Word in its infinite
wisdom chooses to reset them to Same as Previous every time the index is
updated, it should display a message: "You incorrectly set these to bla,
bla, bla. Shall Word reset them to bla, bla, bla?"
