Is there a way to have a slightly different header on each page? I have a
document where we are using track changes. On every page that has changed we
want to put "change 1" in the header.

The only way to have a different header on each page is to make each page a
separate section, and that may cause more problems than it solves,
especially if the location of the page breaks should change.

Hi Dave,

This is very difficult in Word. The text of the header is a property
of the section, not of the page. The alternatives are (1) place a
section break before and after each changed page -- generally a bad
idea -- or (2) place the change notice in a text box or frame that's
anchored in the page text but positioned in the header area.

You might be able to do something with a StyleRef field, but anything
you want it to show in the header area would also have to appear in
the page text, so that's more trouble than it's worth.
