This is *not* a solution for your problem but others have had similar problems and some of them feel better knowing they are not alone. Google: mindfulmusings.net>March 2004>Microsoft Word...

I have to agree with those sentiments.  I'm also now terrified that the section breaks I just added are going to corrupt my document.  I have an insane amount of backup versions, so rolling back won't be a problem, but I don't even want to deal with it.  but I can't have separate page numbers and headers otherwise, so what the heck am I supposed to do?  I'm going to start looking more closely at WordPerfect and Indesign as my formal documentation tools.  More on that later.

By the way, MAJOR props to Zaine's enormous word processor review.  Man, that was a ton of work, and very well thought out and organized.
