why do I get a different footer when copying and pasting text
I have a document that I want to copy chunks of into another document, but
when I paste it into the new document it completely changes the footer and doesn't match the original or the new documents' footers - does anyone know why this happens and how I can stop this happening please? |

why do I get a different footer when copying and pasting text
Hi Dawn,
If the material that you are copying contains any section breaks, those section breaks will be copied into your document along with the configuration of the headers and footers that are embedded within them. A section break may look like a little thing, but a lot of information is stored in it. When you copy a section break from one document into another, you create the section preceding it, and that section will have the headers and footers defined in the source document. -- Hope this helps, Pesach Shelnitz My Web site: http://makeofficework.com "Dawn Cole" wrote: I have a document that I want to copy chunks of into another document, but when I paste it into the new document it completely changes the footer and doesn't match the original or the new documents' footers - does anyone know why this happens and how I can stop this happening please? |
