I'm quite impressed with Nisus but have a couple of questions for the Nisus studs out there. I have RTFM, well 90% of it, and am having a couple of problems. 1. When I choose the date format to look like March 20, 1963 I just get the year (1963). The month and date don't appear. It works fine when I use the long format Tuesday March 20,1963 or the short form 3/20/63. None of the other date formats work properly. I thought that it may have been the "Date" CDEV but I removed it and still no go. Is this a bug or am I a moron? (OK, maybe I'm a moron but what's wrong here?) 2. I'm trying to convert my Word style sheets to Nisus style sheets and rulers. There is one thing that I've not been able to solve. Word has a paragraph format command called "Keep with Next Paragraph." I find this extremely useful when dealing with section headings. Right now (no, not WriteNow) Nisus does things like this: 1. Introduction ---------------------------------page break------------------------- The subsequent paragraph ... I don't want to allow a page break between a section heading and the next paragraph. I know how to do it on an individual basis with "Keep on same page" but how can I incorporate it into my heading style?
