Default Sections, footers and headers

Actually, the terminology isn't consistent between versions. Word has
changed back and forth between "Link to Previous" and "Same as Previous." In
other words, it's a quite understandable omission in an otherwise excellent
article. :-)

Suzanne,

Not sure if the web page you mentioned refers to a previous version of
Word, but the paragraph where it says:

"Whenever you do want to create a header or footer that is entirely
different from the one in the previous section, however, you need to unlink
the header and footer. You do this by clicking on the Same as Previous
button on the Header and Footer toolbar (to turn it off)."

In Word 2007, the Header & Footer Tools ribbon bar, shows "Link to
Previous" instead of "Same as Previous".

Took me a moment to translate what the instructions were referring to.

After disabling "Link to Previous", the footer in Section 2 is now
displaying correctly.

Thanks !
