If you want different parts of a word-processing document to have different headers or footers, numbers of columns, title pages, or page-numbering schemes, you divide the document into sections.

Inserting a section break

To insert a section break:

1	Click with the I-beam pointer where you want the new section to begin.
2	Choose Insert Section Break from the Format menu.
	The new section has the same attributes as the previous section.

Note: You can insert an automatically updating section number or section page count (the number of pages in the section).

Specifying section attributes

To specify section attributes:

1	Click with the I-beam pointer anywhere in the section.
2	Choose Section from the Format menu.
3	Select options.

You can use the Section dialog box or the column controls on the text ruler to create and modify columns.

Removing a section break

To remove a section break:

•	Place the insertion point at the beginning of the line following the section break and press the Delete key.
	Tip: Turn on invisibles to see the formatting character you're deleting.
