volume numbers and volume titles

[Bodvar Bjorgvinsson]

Seem like your "Sections" are really the Volumes. Anyway you can use
the <$Volume> system variable here.

As an answer to your question, you would use the Running Header or
Footer (Running H/F) and have it read the parargraph tag or element
(Regluar or Structured FM) for the section title or heading (whatever
the name you give it). You can combine elements and tags as needed in
this variable.

For a more detailed answer I would need a more detailed information
from you, but hopefully this is enough help.

However, one thing I also do in my guides is put the section title in the footer of each chapter within that section. Can anyone suggest a way in which I could make that section title a variable such that if I moved the chapter to a different section (or I import my page layouts/variables from one chapter to the other 20... ), the section (or volume) title would also be correctly picked up, via the volume ID?
