Hi Andrew,

Don't kick yourself too hard !!  Your idea was my first thought as well.

But when I tried it, it didn't work, and as Gadget had emphasized that this was only temporary, I didn't bother trying to find out why. 
I just vaguely remembered having seen another posting here somewhere with this problem, and vaguely remembered something about blank lines, so I tried it and --- Voilį

Decided to go hunting for the link, and found it, and re-discovered, that this is not a trivial problem !

Amongst other things, it has to do with the fact that MS Publisher defines absolute positions for pages, which b*****s up everything else !!

You won't believe this Bob - or maybe you will Smiley
When I had the problem, I knew I'd seen something similar on here somewhere - but where or when and what to search for, I wasn't sure Huh

That is the exact thread i was thinking of Roll Eyes

Still, I'm not going to use Publisher again for webpages - it was a quick solution. I'm now working on my site structure  Smiley
