Many thanks.

Suppose I want to modify the structure of an already-written notebook.  
How to structure it as listed in my previous email? That is, part of it 
goes to a section that it is divided in subsection 1, subsection 2 and 
dangling cells. I want to select what set of cells go to  subsection 1, 
subsection 2 and dangling section.

Cheers

Ed
