Adding 'Continued' to Column breaks
Version: MS Word 9.0.2720
I am creating a long (~90 pages) two-column document from a database. The
information presented is in the following format:
(These are paragraph styles)
Title
Description
Title
Description
Title
Description
The Title style is designated 'Keep With Next', but Description is not, thus
is it can break across columns and pages. However, my requirements are to
determine if the Description paragraph breaks across a column, and if so,
put the word 'Continued' at the top of the new column.
Here is what I have determined needs to be done:
Generate the document
From the beginning, look for Description that spans a column/page break.
Insert the text '(Continued)'
Repaginate (Inserting '(Continued)' could change pagination, thus affecting
the appropriate place for the next Continued.
Goto next Description style that spans a column/page break
If anyone has any ideas on how to accomplish this task, I'd love to hear it
(or if I'm taking the wrong approach).
Thanks
