Sections in a document have a standard format. For example you can set up sections in your document that have different amounts of columns, if you were doing a magazine. It is possible to have the different sections on the one page. So part of the page woule have 3 columns of text and part could have two columns. A section break will allow you to that. After making a section break, you can change the formatting and it won't affect other sections. A next page section break will create a section break, but start that section on a new page. It is a combination of a section break and a page break.
