    Thank you, Chris. You have a way of clearly articulating how to get the job done on the 3 very fundamental aspects of formatting a document using WORD. Your video of 21 Jan 2022 continues to generate interest and value. Yes, the session opened my eyes to the "Section Break" function, and I dare say it will be of phenomenal help in my work drafting corporate reports. A Big Thank YOU. Cheers

    How can we print a specific section
    I restarted the page numbering with every new section break. Later I wanted to print only a certain section from the document, I used custom print and inserted the range of page numbers that I want, it keeps printing the wrong pages. I tried both:same numbers on the pages or the numbers on the lower left corner of the document, both did not work.
    Thanks for your help.

    I have created a document with two columns of text. How do I get the text in the first column to continue to the bottom of the page before the text wraps up to the top of the second column? My columns are equal in length which tends to leave unwanted white space at the bottom of the page. I liked your video better that many on this topic.

    • @ChrisMenardTraining
      @ChrisMenardTraining  2 роки тому

      It sounds like a column break is on the column on the left side. Turn on show hide and see if you see a column break and delete it. Show/hide is on the Home Tab in the Paragraph Group. If you do not see a column break, then that means you have two columns set. Let's change it to one column. Click anywhere in the two columns, click the *Layout* Tab, click *Columns* and click *One* (for one column). Let me know if this works.

    How about the section break on even and odd page. I never understand, who wants to put section in odd and even pages usually you want the pages to follow sequence, example page 2 has page #, page 3 is missing page # because of this weird odd and even section break. What's the real situation to use the odd and even section break? Thanks.

    • @ChrisMenardTraining
      @ChrisMenardTraining  2 роки тому

      Most books are printed two sided. Chapters start on the ODD pages. Not the Even pages. So if you do a Section Break Odd, a chapter will start on the odd page and Word will add a blank even page if needed. It does look strange when working in Word and you don't see the even page, but when printed, it comes out correctly. I've never had to use Even section breaks, but I'm sure there is a rare occurrence when someone may need that.

    Thank you. That was very helpful. I do have a problem setting up section breaks. Say There I want to count a page but not have the number visible in either header or footer. For example The title "Chapter I" appears on its own page (I want to count this as Page 1 but not have the page number appear in either the header or footer section), The text for Chapter I appears on the next page (That would be page 2). Page 2 should be visible in either the header of footer section. How do I do this without misplacing my mind?
    Thank you

  • @justinmobile8112
    @justinmobile8112 10 місяців тому

    What I was finding confusing is that there's always 1 section but when you click into editing a header or footer before you've added extra sections, they're only labeled as header or footer. After you add extra sections the name of the header(s) and footer(s) in section 1 then get referred to when editing them with their section number.
