Thanks for your help with the tab stops. This works beautifully. Where would
we all be without you?

Now to my other questions

1. Is there a code in Duxbury which skips lines conditionally i.e. not if
there is a page break  where the [sk1] code is. I want a blank line after
certain bits of text, but where a page break intervenes the blank line
appears at the top of the next page which is not really necessary. If I
block protect  the whole lot it may move everything to a new page, wasting
even more lines. So I just wondered if there was a "skip lines except for
where a page break occurs" code? Maybe I'm asking too much.

2. Is there a way of having duxbury predict where a  running header needs to
go? I'll try to explain.
page 1 has a heading Kittens Need Good Homes. I have also set a running
header of  the same name.

The text underneath this heading runs on to page 2 and then onto page 3 line
3.
Page 3 line 4: another heading Feeding your Kitten.  running headerchanged
to "feeding your kitten"

The running header "Kittens need good homes" which I set at the beginning of
page 1 appears on page 2 (as it should) but also on page 3, even though the
majority of the text on page 3 is about feeding kittens.
Is there a way of making DBT put the new running header  on the next page at
the top of that page, even though the former piece of text is still
finishing off?
Maybe I'm asking too much here.
Hope somebody understands, 'cos not sure I do (grin) .

Thanks

Lisette
