Hi Milos, Don't be too quick to blame your script, it might not be the cause of the issue I have encountered. I copied all the files (the originals, yours and Hazel's corrections) over to another computer with a different version of Writer and now I am seeing something different. I am starting to think that it may have something to do with the OS and versions each of us are using. Let me work on this over the next couple of days and I will report back. In the meantime it would be helpful if you and Hazel would be kind enough to let me know details of the OS and LO version you are both using.
Thanks for the tip about correcting page references.
