Linda,
The method you use actually produces a column break that moves the _next_
paragraph to the top of the next column. Setting Pagination to Top of Column
(or Top of Page) moves the _current_ paragraph to the top of the next column
(or page).
I prefer your method. It works a bit like Special> Page Break> At Top of
Next Available Column, except that Frame doesn't see it as an override. So
Remove Overrides won't undo it. I also prefer your method because it
requires only one special paragraph format and leaves me to decide which
kind of paragraph will be at the top of the next column or page. Using the
Pagination settings requires a paragraph format for each paragraph style you
might want to have follow a break. For example, in addition to a Heading1
format that can start mid-column, you might need something like a
Heading1ColBreak format and Heading1PageBreak.
I'd keep doin' it the way you're doin' it!

Subject: Page break paragraph style
Framers,
Years ago, I learned from this list about creating a paragraph style to
use
for page breaks. I've always done this using something like 800 pts of
space
after for the page break paragraph tag to force the new page. In talking
about this with a colleague, she asked why not set the Pagination to Top
of
Page. Hmmm. Good question.
Do you folks have any words of wisdom (pros or cons) for using one method
over the other for a page break paragraph tag?
Thanks!
