On a structured document, I'd think long and hard about using subsections without parent sections. That's just not right. It misrepresents the document's structure, and confuses appearance with structure. If you want to call attention, make a new environment called "callattention" and use that. > Currently I'm using a centered 3" line between subsections. I don't > like the look.

The prior two paragraphs don't really say exactly what you're doing. Do you mean the line is under the text below the (wrongly used) subsection, or something else? > > Any suggestions? Use/create environments and character styles that truly represent their meaning -- don't use environments made for other purposes just because they happen to look pretty good in the situation.
