Dale ... Nino ... & others in the know -

       Please explain how this works -
            I think I've been doing it wrong;
         your methods sound to be a shortcut which sure would keep the
pages in line.

       Thanking you now, I'll be eagerly awaiting further details along
this line,

I should hope not.  On the Insert menu there is an option for Manual Break
and an option for Section.  Why would that be considered the same thing?
 And, if it is, why are two options necessary?
