Hi ?B?SGVpdGs=?=,

when you mention; ("Another would be to copy the entire section, then
delete what you don't need") ENTIRE SECTION, what is you definition of that
term ?

From just afer one section break, up to and including the next section break.

Every document has, by default, a single section. The section information in
this case is stored in the last paragraph mark. If you use Insert/Section and
choose any kind of section break, then you're added an additional section to
the document. The section break that controls a document is always found at
the *end* of a section. Some types of formatting the sections control:
margins, headers, footers, vertical page alignment.

Therefore, you can only include headers and footers when copying text if the
section break is also included.

Rarely is a single page equal to an entire section, although if you're "lucky"
when you select a page you could end up also selecting a section break.

What you might consider doing, if you need to do this
copy-text-into-new-doc-with-header on a regular basis would be to set up a
TEMPLATE with the header/footer information and always create the new document
from this template.
