Insert a Line & a Pagebreak before Heading (Office XP, SP-2)

New challenges:

Our Bid department came up with a new requirement for a document:

I have a template for creating offer documents. The Headings have a defined style; Heading 1 have a shaded area with an orange font.
A Heading 1 shall always appear on the top of the page. Doing so to day the shaded area shows on the previous page as part of the pagebreak, since the Heading has a shading (Dark Blue) which is not nice.

Therefore
I need to code in VBA the following behaviour:
When a Heading 1 is made it shall always start on a new page and always have a line of a small font inserted before the Heading. Then I avoid the pagebreak to appear on the previous page.

I have tried Format/Paragraph/Line and Page Breaks and the Page break before
If a line of another format (normal) with a small font could be inserted before the Heading it will solve the problem.

Or may be there are other solutions?

Hope someone can give me a clue of how to do that.

Can you tell us why that didn’t solve your problem? If you check Page Break Before in the style definition, the Heading 1 style will always begin on a new page, but there will be no physical page break that shows the unwanted shading.

Thanks Hans,

I got it, but may be I tried it on a Heading that was not set with “Page Break Before”.

I tried ones more and it now seems to Work OK!

So thanks again!
