I don't think you've worn Cindy out, but she's in Switzerland, and it's
sleepytime over there.
Depending on your Word version, the Same as Previous/Link to Previous button
will have a different appearance, but the On/Off state will be represented
in the same way as other toggles (such as Bold, Italic, and so on). On will
be pushed in, highlighted, bordered, etc., and off will be the reverse. Even
more indicative, when a header or footer is linked to the corresponding
header/footer in the previous section, the words "Same as Previous" will be
at the top of the Header/Footer pane.
Note, however, that whether the header/footer is linked or not has no
bearing on the margins settings for a given section unless you're changing
the margins by using header/footer tricks.

Suzanne,
I guess wore out poor Cindy. Sorry about that. Yes, I have made certain
that
the changes are saved only to the section of interest.
I am wondering though about the un-linking from the previous section. Is
there a way I can check that. When I click on the link/unlink button on
the
header/footer toolbar, I'm never really sure that it's unlinked.
Sorry for the pain here, but now I'm obsessed with killing this damned
pleading format.
Thank you,
mojr

If you have inserted a section break between pages 4 and 5, as I believe
you
have, make sure that in Page Setup you have "Apply to" set to "This
section"
rather than "Whole document" when you change the margins.

My most recent response (corrected for five instead of four pages)
was:
1. Insert a NEXT PAGE SECTION BREAK at the end of the pleading
paper
stuff
2. Unlink the headers/footers for page five from the previous
section
3. Delete everything in the header/footer (which should include the
numbers)
I followed your instructions perfectly. The pleading stuff does go
away.
BUT, for page 5 I want my margins set at 0.5". When do this throught
the
File|Page setup, the margins on page 4 move to the 0.5" also. I also
have
a
header and footer on page 5. How do I fix these problems?
