header won't show up
This may be a crazy question, but I can't get my header and footer to show
up. I have gone to the View menu and selected Header/Footer and still don't get anything. I have checked to make sure the White Space between pages shows up. Can anyone help? |

Try changing the document view. Go to View == Print Layout. See if that
helps. "Samantha" wrote: This may be a crazy question, but I can't get my header and footer to show up. I have gone to the View menu and selected Header/Footer and still don't get anything. I have checked to make sure the White Space between pages shows up. Can anyone help? |

From your description, you've done everything right, so the likelihood is
that the document is corrupt. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm -- Suzanne S.

header won't show up
I have encountered the same problem but mine goes a step farther. I have two
computers...one had Office 2000 and the other has Office 2003. The document looked fine on both of my computers. Someone else tried to access the file from their computer (same Office 2003 version as myself) and was unable to view the headers. I tried all the tricks and actually got them to show up once. Since I got it to work, I tested it to see if it would continue to work. When I closed and opened the document it would not show the headers regardless of anything I did after that. When I returned to my desk, I could still view the file just fine on both my computers. I'm perplexed. My opinion is that there is something wrong between Word 2000 and 2003 specifically when it comes to tracked changes. We heavily utilize tracked changes and it has caused nothing but headaches when the company began to move to 2003. "Suzanne S.

I assume this is not just a white space issue? See
