Yes, I tried that (reported some time ago) in accordance with the help advice and selecting all sections (CTL-A). What it apparently does is remove the section boundaries (all become section 1) BUT it does NOT then permit all pages to be renumbered as one unit nor does it permit the headers and footers to be treated as a unit (that is, all stop at the end of what was section 1 before). I tried saving and re-opening the file after this and the problem remained. Perhaps it's a problem (bug) with the section removal process; all evidence seems to suggest it IS section-related.

Perhaps someone knows what mod can be made to the XML to fix this.

Still looking for help.

I must admit that I missed the entire thread on this post, whic means that I do not really understand the problem or how to reproduce it, etc...

Can you create a "before" and "after" document that demonstrates the problem? It is best if the document contains a description of the problem along wiht the steps required to recreate the problem.

After you have done this, can you create an issue for this problem? Do you know how to do this? If you do know how, after you create the issue, can you email me the issue number to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

If you do not know how to create an issue, can you simply email me the two files so that I can reproduce the problem by doing exactly what you have done.

My primary interest is NOT that I am an expert on this, but that if I see the problem, then I can write some macros to examine the document internals and attempt to figure out what went wrong based on the incorrect output.
