Many thanks, Stefan. I really appreciate your help on this. Unfortunately, I'm not skilled enough to make the changes. I'll just devise some sort of workaround. Have decided, though, when I start another project like this I'm going to switch to Scrivener -- MS is absolutely useless in this situation -- nothing on line and nothing I can find in a web search for books on Word 2011. The one that keeps popping up by Chris Grover is remarkably deficient. If I were the publisher I'd be embarrassed.
