Thanks so much for responding, Charles. I tried doing some of that, but I am such a novice at this I quickly became lost. I don't use Word for anything except writing books, and have so little experience with it. I tried changing style to custom heading 1 but still get the random text in the pasted chapters. It's only the pasted chapters. It's not hurting anything, except my fragile ego that I can't figure it out! But, thanks for the reference. Maybe one day when my head isn't ready to explode it will make sense to me.
