Or try this:
1. Press Alt+F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor.
2. In the Immediate window at the bottom of the screen, type
CommandBars("Header and Footer").Visible = True
3. Press Enter
This will work only if you have the header pane open in a Word document.

NZ:
This is going to sound really simple but consider this:
The program isn't working right. You may have a bug on your
computer--even
if your virus detection hasn't found it yet.
I'd suggest that you should reinstall Word. The program is supposed to
work
and it's not.
I'd recommend reinstalling. Then run a disk check (formerly scandisk),
virus check, and make sure you've downloaded the most recent updates.
You're the IT guy. You don't need me to tell you this. But I think we
both
agree--Your word's not working right.

Thanks for that Jacob. Unfortunately it only partly solves the problem
because I really need the complete H/F toolbar. I am an IT trainer and
use
H/F's with my trainees and use the H/F toolbar a lot, especially to show
how
to break the link between Same As Previous etc! Luckily this is only
happening with my home computer so fa. I am the only one using this
computer
so have no idea why all of a sudden this particular toolbar is not
working!
Another thing I've tried is going into View/Toolbars/Customise and
trying to
put a tick in the H/F toolbar there but it doesn't allow me to do this.
I
guess this could be the main problem but once again don't know why it's
not
working .... very baffling!
If anyone else comes up with any other ideas to find the missing toolbar
I
would certainly welcome them! Thanks all the same. I appreciate your
taking
the time to respond.

I've only got the quick fix. That's a good question. To get you buy
for
now go to VIEW TOOLBARS then AUTOTEXT. This will let you get your
autotext
in the headers/footers.
I can't imagine why it's not automatically coming up. It's designed
to.
Make sure you look around sometimes another computer user (my four
year old)
may have moved it to someplace where it's hiding within the window.
Good Luck!

When I am inserting headers and footers in a Word document I don't
get the
Header & Footer TOOLBAR. The only thing that appears is the header
area of
the document or the footer area, WITHOUT the toolbar, which I
usually use for
inserting page numbers, breaking the links between sections etc.
HELP????
