Display help for the StyleRef field. Click the 'Switches' subheading --

Causes the field to display the entire paragraph number for a referenced
paragraph without trailing periods. No information about prior levels is
displayed unless it is included as part of the current level.

Hi there,

Thanks for the suggestion. I searched help for info about the \n switch
and
couldn't find any. How does the \n switch work and how would I
incorporate
it into styleref field?

Cheers,
Debbie

Many thanks Greg!

Just one other thing..I inserted the styleref field and chose the
appropriate style name (in this case heading 2). It inserted the name
of
the
section (eg Introduction), but not the number (eg 4.1). How do I make
it
do
both?

Cheers,
Debbie

Hi there,

I am currently writing my thesis and was interested to know how to
insert section headings in my headers, so that it automatically
inserts the correct heading for that page. Examples of what I mean
are below. Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks!

Deb

Example of what 2 pages may look like:

Page 1

4.1 Introduction (header)
____________________

4.1 Introduction
Text text text
Text text text

4.2 Background
Text text text
Text text text
_______________________


Page 2:

4.3 Literature review (header)
___________________
Text text text

4.3 Literature review

4.4 Blah
