From: Tony Law on
I have a document that uses different headings (both using the same heading
style). If I look at the document with hidden characters turned on, I see the
doc has 2 paragraphs. The first one has a heading as does the second one.
However, if I turn off hidden character, paragraph 2 jumps up and becomes
part of section 1 to make one big paragraph. When I print, whether or not I'm
viewing hidden characters, it prints it as one big paragraph.

If I delete the paragraph mark after the first paragraph and hit enter
(essentially inserting a new paragraph mark), the second paragraph stays and
prints correctly. Why is this doing this?

This happens if the paragraph mark is hidden.

The paragraph has been formatted as explained in
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/RunInSidehead.htm. There's probably a
reason it was done this way. If you combine the two paragraphs, the TOC will
not be as intended.
