I have got a fixed paragraph that needs to be put at the bottom of the

last
page of a document (or the bottom of the first page if the document is

only
one page long). I have tried footers and section positioning but can't

get
them to work properly. Word seems to only respect the page positioning

for a
section if the page begins with that section. When my document is one

page
long, the paragraph that should be at the bottom, is continuous with the
paragraph in the section above it. Anybody know how to do this?

Thanks,
Steve
