RE: Word 2003 - heading style includes start next odd page

["Jessica Weissman" <Jessica -dot- Weissman -at- hillcrestlabs -dot- com>]

I wonder whether there wouldn't be some way to embed conditional text
containing a page break character in the style.  Constructing the
condition would be the tough part, as it would have to figure out what
the current page number was and then do something that changed it
automatically, which might lead to some kind of infinite loop.

Really stretching here, I know.
