When you cut or copy the original letter into your new document, make sure
you do not copy the last paragraph mark (or other section breaks). These
carry header/footer info.

Hello!

I have created a letterhead doc that has a different header/footer on the
first page. (Thanks to Susan Barnhill's document on letterhead!) Now,
my
header/footer is different than the header/footer on each subsequent page.
That was the first goal, so yay! Now, when I try to cut and paste 11
pages
worth of letter text into this document, my header/footers disappear all
together!

I am not a total novice to Word but this has stumped me. I position my
cursor at the first line beneath my header on page one and paste the text.
Then, I only have my text and no header/footer at all.

Any help is much appreciated!
