This is extremely easy to do in WordPerfect and in TeX because of their token-driven formatting. Object-oriented formatting à la Word and Writer needs some clumsy tricks to obtain the same result. The most common ways to do it are via one-row-three-columns tables, or tabs. For the headers and footers, you already have three placeholders. And yes, this is just One More Reason why token formatting is *much* better than OO formatting. -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
