HTH, Twayne` You can change paragraph or character styles mid-page. I don't know for certain, but I wouldn't have thought you could change page styles mid-page, as by definition they apply to a whole page. What would you expect to happen if two page styles were applied to the same page? If you're trying to vary the left and right margins mid-page, try looking at Format Paragraph Indents, and perhaps create and use paragraph styles to set them.

I'm probably not well caffiene injected yet, but I can't seem to do it. TIA, Twayne` I think you may be able to accomplish the effect you need with a section break. What do you need to change? Sections are what I started with and may have to suffice; it just doesn't encompass everythng I want. These sections are normally only 5 to 10 lines long and then I return to the document's default formatting settings. There isn't any single thing I'm unable to do with Sections as they vary all over the place depending on what they are and where they came from and who did them up originally. That's why I was hoping to be able to somehow start-stop within the page based on something other than using a new page, where everything below the subject page would then be blank. Maybe I'll switch to scanning to get an image instead; more work but a more faithful and professional presentation appearance at least.
