    Default Re: Automatically insert chapter title in page header?

    Thank you all for your tips. I am trying what Benoit and Gerald are suggesting and it seems to work, but I have one problem:

    I inserted sections for each chapter, and section markers on the master page. I want the chapter names to appear at the pages following the first page of the chapter. But now it places the chapter name not only on the first and following pages but also on the previous page. So, the last page of every section gets the section heading of the next section.

    What is it that I do wrong?

    Thanks.

    Hi all,

    I solved the problem that I described in my previous message. I found out that to start a new section, I have to select the correct page in the page pallette. Instead, I placed my cursor in the text itself and this led to wrongly inserted section breaks.

    So thank you all.
