The widow trick mentioned in the previous article doesn't work right because WN brings the entire paragraph down to fit on the next page (the one where the widow was origionally located). The only way I have found around this problem is to insert a hard return before the line before the widow (make any sense?). Then select the widow and its previous line and choose the Keep Lines Together option. This will keep those last two lines together on the following page. This is pretty kludgey, though. Is there a better way of doing this??? Blake "Hey, where's MY fancy footer?" Sobiloff
