I'm trying to get CONTINUED at the top of a block when it flows onto a
new page. I'm trying some stuff with multiple page sequences, but it
keeps forcing a new page, even when there would only be one page,
originally. Any tips?

Use a retrieved marker to pull "CONTINUED" into the page header.

A trick can sometimes be employed to bring it into the top of the page body by using table headers with hidden borders.

There is no facility to bring it in at the "top of a block" ... do you mean at the top of the widows of a block that has been split between pages? Actually, I suppose the table trick could be employed on every block, though that would have other ramifications that are likely unpleasant and surprising.

To clarify, I only want it to show up if there are actually more thane
one page, and I want it to show up on every page except the first.

Check the archives for the use of retrieved markers. This is straightforward and I believe it has been asked quite often.

I hope this helps. I can post more in a few hours when I've finished some pressing work at my desk, but by then you should have found what you are looking for.
