I have many sections within a document, I had been mixing them between Continuous and Next Page, but after finding I needed to use Next Page to make headings work the way I wanted, I switched all of mine to next page.
I have two sections (out of something like 20) that don't stay that way, though. I switch them to Next Page, and use the Outline view to make sure I've deleted the Continuous. I save. I close. I open it again, and they're continuous instead of next page.
I've tried this now 3 or 4 times and it always goes back to Continuous.
Don't try to delete and reinsert section breaks. Instead, just change the section start type on the
Layout tab of the Page Setup dialog (open the dialog using the dialog launcher in the bottom right corner of the
Paragraph group on the Home tab or by double-clicking on the top of the horizontal ruler).
