Hi Donna,
It depends on who prepared the book and how it was done. Often times if
the Word Chapter appears as the first line on the page, to the header
stripper it looks just like another running header. To avoid the header
stripper from removing it you can place a "fake" header at the top. To do
this you should put whatever would be there if the page was not the start of
a chapter.
If the book does not have headers, making sure that a blank line DOES NOT
follow the first line on the Chapter page is a workaround. Or you could
place a blank line above the line that has Chapter written on it.
HTH,
Jake
