I am working on a school project, and I do not want to use chapters, and I want sections to be "the most important" style.

Right now, sections are numbered n.m, where n is the chapter (0), and m is the section, I want it to display just m, or make chapter format like sections normally do. (ie. don't output "chapter", do not create a new page)

I am using the report class.

Edit: On second thought, I do want hard page breaks after each section.

If you change to the Article class, you can choose "Section" as the top-most level, and "Subsection*" as the next level, to avoid numbering on that sub-level.

Hard page breaks would probably have to entered manually from the Insert->Formatting menu.

Or Chris' solution probably ultimately works too...

You need to learn and love LaTeX

I am trying. I've been having a lot of trouble installing LaTeX on my Mac, and finally got this to work for a school project that was supposed to be done today. – Jeffrey Aylesworth Nov 10 '09 at 0:34
I had good luck with MacTex – Chris Nov 10 '09 at 13:21

How about a link to a good LaTeX tutorial? I don't think googling "how to love LaTeX" is going to have many safe-for-work results. – Joseph Holsten Nov 10 '09 at 15:26
