Using MS Word 2003, when I activate the header and footer boxes from the
view
menu, they are only visible when the plicrow (paragraph symbol) is
engaged.
The symbol also is listed in the header and footer boxes and I can't
eliminate it. All I'm trying to do is to insert page numbers in the footer
of
a document after one section break. Any assistance with this issue is
greatly
appreciated.
