Harald, thanks for the idea, but either it is not that simple or I
dont quite understand how to use Sectioning for the desired effect.
 
A page from a screenplay can contain dialogue from a number of
characters. In Word, if there is more than one section to a page,
the header and footer from the first section are used on that page.
However, I need the header and footer of the LAST section to be
used, since it is the dialogue of the last character on the page
that I need to be followed by a header of that character's name.
In addition, I would have to set the header and footer for each
bit of dialogue, which would be very time consuming in itself.
If you know a way around this then please tell me. I dont see 
one.
