Ann:

First of all, you have to decide what type of running header you want to use.  
A running header, that appears at the top of odd pages, A running header, that 
appears at the top of even pages or, A running header, that appears at the top 
of every page.

The [svrhpn] code will do this.  Replace the n with the numbers, 1, 2 or 3, to 
determine where the running header will appear.

[svrhp1], will place a running header at the top of every odd page.

[svrhp2], will place a running header at the top of every even page.

[svrhp3], will place a running header at the top of every page.

Once you have decided on an odd, even or every page running header, the next 
thing to do is enter the text for the running header.

The text for the running header must be placed between the following codes:

[tls] (Start definition of running header)

and

[tle] (End definition of running header)

If, at any point in a document you want to stop the running header, use the 
[tld] (Discontinue running header) code.

Note:  One of the drawbacks of DBT, is that you cannot have alternate running 
headers for odd and even pages at the same time.

So, for those of you who are using MS Word to prepare your braille documents, 
it is unlikely that you will not be able to define different running headers 
for odd and even pages and expect them to appear in the braille output.  This 
is because, DBT will only allow one defined running header to be in use at any 
one time.

HTH
