Automatic insertion when pressing enter

[pinje]

Hi everybody,

I am a relatively new user of open office. I have a problem on a document made with writer, everytime i am pressing enter, open office automaticallly inserts the Chapter number at the beginning of each line. How do you switch this feature off?

I don't understand as i just saved my document, and this problem arised when i reopened it. That is hours that i am trying to figure out why, and it's start to be quite frustrating!!

Thanks for your help,

Jeremy

Well as you're asking, i do have another problem,

this one concern the page number... my report is divided into 2 parts, the first one being the 'preface' (i.e. acknowledgement, abstract, table of contents..) and the second one being the default (i.e. the report with the different chapters)

I am trying to insert a page number with a roman numbers (I, II, III, IV) for the preface and normal numbers (1, 2, 3) for the report. For what i have read and understand, it seems that i have to apply a page style such as preface and then to define the required footer.

Unfortunalely, when i am trying to apply it to the current page, it applies it to the whole document. How do you apply it to the current page? the help just say that i just have to double click on the page style, but it does not work with me!!! I have then read on the forum that i need to insert a section as well.

So i start to be confused, what is the difference between a page style and a section? and when do i need to use them?

Thanks for answering my numerous questions,

Jeremy

Between your two section, do Insert -> manual break -> select "page break" and under "style" select "default". There you can also change the initial page number after the break
