Probably by putting a section break (not a page break) between
the second and third pages. "Different first page" applies to
the first page of each section.

Hi, I'm using Word 2000, and I'm trying to understand how someone could have
done this to their document -

They created a document with a 'Different First Page' header and footer, and
then, on the second page, created a different header footer. When they
inserted a break on the second page the First Page footer popped up on the
third page.

I think they used 'Break before' on a paragraph to insert the break.

As i understand it, using Different First Page would only appear on the
first page. Having it turn up again seems very weird.

Any idea how this could have happened? I've read most of the stuff on the
mvp site about section breaks and headers/footers, but I'm obviously missing
something here.

(and just to make things more fun, the forth page of this document has to be
blank - for extra credit (:-), what would have been the best way to have the
last page blank? Using the conditional numbering sounds fun, but I don't
think this place is ready for that yet :-)

Cheers,
Caroline.
