Okay, here's the real problem:
I was told two-line footers were showing up everywhere in the document,
but
in reality (after my own inspection of the report), one page that gets
inserted via AutoText ends up having a footer that doesn't have the same
width as the other footers; it's missing about a half inch on the left,
pushing the text in the footer to two lines. I have other issues with
these
inserted pages (they're too deep for me at this time) but I can usually
solve
them. This little footer problem on the one page is tough. Can it be
solved?

Many thanks,
John

John,

If I understand your question correctly, you need two areas of info in
the
footer: (1) the address and (2) the copyright. The address text may be
long
enough to take up more than 1 line, but you want it to truncate to (a)
just 1
line and (b) before the right side of that line, where the copyright
info
goes.

If so, insert a 2-column, 1-row table into the footer. Adjust the
column
widths so that the left (i.e., address) column is (presumably) much
wider
than the right column. (You probably also want the right column to be
right-aligned.) Select the entire table then set Table Table
Properties
Borders button None. For the address column, set Table Table
Properties
Row tab Specify Row Height to 0.02" (works for a single line of text
with
12 pt Times New Roman; test for other fonts/font sizes) and set Row
Height to
"Exactly." This will "lock" the address column to displaying just 1
line of
text, no matter how much text is actually there.

Is that what you needed?
