Re: How to create unnumbered sections?

[Shaoyun YU <yu.shaoyun@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Thank you for your reply.
I think there was a typo in the last line of your code:

\let\thesection\origsection => \let\thesection\origthesection

While the original code has encountered some errors, the modified code
works fine.

Thanks again,
Shaoyun YU
