Hi all,Yet another problem with Chapter*. I have some appendices at the end of the book which I put as Chapter* instead of Chapter so they wouldn't be identified as "Chapter 58: Appendex A" on the page header or in the table of contents. It didn't work out too well. The page headers for Appendex A shows the header for the last chapter made with Chapter instead of Chapter*. In other words, the Appendix's page header shows something like "Chapter 57: Lastchaptertitle". I'm using a document class derived from class Book, and it's waaaaaaay too late to change to Memoir or Koma or any of those, and I don't like them anyway. I've attached a 2 chapter sample that clearly shows the problem on its PDF output's last page. Another problem is my super-duper date-showing header reverts to the one last shown in a legitimate chapter. I spoze there are two ways I can handle this. I could make the appendices chapters and include ERT like this just before they start: \renewcommand{\thechapter}{ }\renewcommand{\chaptername}{ } I'd need to do something similar with the date variable used in the date header, which isn't that hard. Or I could find some way to make Chapter* influence \thechapter and \chaptername and the like. Any ideas?

For the header problem you could put \markboth{}{} in ERT after the start of the appendix. That will clear the headers entirely.
