 +=====Soft and Hard Return and Page Break and Section Breaks=====
 +  *Hard Return: A hard return is created by pressing the Enter key. This action signifies the end of a paragraph and the beginning of a new one. It is visually represented in Word as a paragraph mark (¶) when non-printing characters are displayed. Hard returns help organize text into distinct sections, making documents easier to read and navigate. 
 +  *Soft Return: A soft return, also known as a line break, is created by pressing Shift + Enter. This action moves the cursor to the next line without starting a new paragraph. Soft returns are useful for formatting text within the same paragraph, such as in lists or when you want to break a line without creating additional spacing that a hard return would introduce. 
 +  *Page break: A page break is created by pressing Ctrl + Enter. These create a break between pages in your document, allowing you to start a new page without affecting the layout of the previous pages. They only partition the body text of the document. 
 +  *Section Breaks: There is no standard keyboard entry for section breaks.  Section breaks are inserted from the menu ribbon, under layout -> breaks (in the page setup ribbon) These allow you to change the layout or formatting of a section of your document. They can partition not only the body text but also headers, footers, page numbers, and margins, enabling different formatting within the same document.
 +    * There are multiplate types of section breaks.  I normally use the __N__ext Page one that creates a new section and new page.
 +Usage: Use page breaks for simple page transitions, while section breaks are useful for more complex formatting needs, such as changing the number of columns or page orientation within a document.
