Section Break (Continuous) counted as Section Break (Next page)

That code doesn't identify anything. It sets a section start to New Page but doesn't ask what it was before the code ran. It is also flawed as written and I'm surprised it actually works.

If you wanted to change the section break type then it should be:
objDoc.Sections(j + mm).PageSetup.SectionStart = wdSectionNewPage

If you want to find out what type of section break it is then you could use

Code:

  Select Case ActiveDocument.Sections(2).PageSetup.SectionStart
    Case wdSectionNewPage
      'do something
    Case wdSectionContinuous
      'do something else
    Case Else
      'do another thing
  End Select
