I have a wordpress set up so that my home page is static and all posts except cat1 posts are shown on page1, cat1 posts are shown on page16 but when i use the <!--more--> tag on cat1 posts it is ignored when displayed on the custom page, how can i correct this?

adding
$more=0; before the loop corrects this
jrodgers, I've tried adding $more=0 before the loop, but without any success. Are you using get_posts()?
I'm using page.php. The page has a custom field that sets a related category. I'm grabbing posts for that category.
It's working fine except for the more quicktag. Any suggestions?
<?php if (isset ($relatedcat)) { // if page has related category
$more = 0;
global $post; $myposts = get_posts('numberposts=99&category='.$relatedcat.'&order=ASC');
if($myposts) {
foreach($myposts as $post) {
setup_postdata($post);
?>full code: http://wordpress.pastebin.ca/1022004.

my code looks like this
<?php
query_posts('page_id='.$_GET['page_id']);
$more = 0;
?>

I am still have trouble getting the more tag to work. I've tried setting the more variable to 0 and to 1. Neither works on a custom page that uses a plug in to collect various posts (see this page).
Here's the whole code for the page (let's hope this posts):
<?php /* Template Name: Page allowing More Tag */ ?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content">
<!-- This is using page-more.php -->
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<h2 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php the_content(__('... read more here')); ?>
<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
<?php edit_post_link(__('Edit'), '<p>', '</p>'); ?>
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>Thanks!

try this
<?php /* Template Name: Page allowing More Tag */ ?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content">
<!-- This is using page-more.php -->
<?php
query_posts();
$more = 0;
?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<h2 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php the_content(__('... read more here')); ?>
<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
<?php edit_post_link(__('Edit'), '<p>', '</p>'); ?>
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
jrodgers, thanks so much for your suggestion.
It seems the more quicktag does not work with get_posts() even when using $more = 0.
It does work with query_posts() with $more = 0 even if you use page.php.
A note for people switching functions. Use category= with get_posts(). Use cat= with query_posts().
Next challenge: get tags working on my related posts displayed below my page's content.
Here's my query for posterity:
<?php if (isset ($relatedcat)) { // if page has related category
$query= 'numberposts=99&cat='. $relatedcat.'&orderby=date&order=ASC';
query_posts($query); // run the query
global $more; $more = 0;
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
setup_postdata($post);
?>
<div class="post" >

$more = 0 did it for me. Thanks.
