[duxuser] Re: Creating a List

Bruce,

The easiest way to fix this is to select everything including the heading and apply the list style as you described. If you look at the list style, you'll notice that there's a [kps] and [kpe] code. These two codes tell DBTW to treat everything between them as a single block, which means trying to keep it on the same page if possible. Since your header is outside the list, it gets placed on a separate page because DBTW knows it can't put both the list and the header on the same page.

In my opinion, the block protect codes should be removed from the list style, and that's what I did so I don't have to deal with that problem. I'd be happy to tell you how to do that if you want me to.

I have here a ten-page list of TV channels and the number assignments. I created the list in Word, one entry to a line. I imported the Word document into DBT 10.4. I centered the heading at the top of the list, then went to the beginning of the list and hit control+shift+home to select to the bottom of the document. Then I hit F8 to apply styles, and chose list. Everything seemed to format just fine, except that it insists on starting the list on a new page instead of leaving a blank line after the heading. If I don't apply the list style, that much of it works correctly but, of course, it doesn't handle the indents of runovers correctly. What obvious point am I missing here?
