URGENT - Need help with Header with Footer
Hello. I am using Word 2003.
Can I insert some exceptions when using header and footer? For example, can I set the header and footer to be invisable in a particular page? If anybody knows the answer please reply asap. Thanks. -- Xero http://www.chezjeff.net My personal web portal |

If you want the header and footer to be "invisible" on a page, I'd put in a
section break before and after the page and delete the header and footer for the section. Make sure that you have "Same as Previous" deselected or you may delete your original headers and footers by mistake. "Xero" (remove_underscores_and_this ) wrote in message ... Hello.

Hi Xero
If you have part of a document with different headers and footers, then the usual way to handle this is to place this part in a different Section. You need a section break at the beginning and end of that part, and you need to unlink the headers footers (so they are not 'Same as previous') before editing. If you need no header or footer on the *first* page, then don't use section breaks but set 'Different first page' in the page set up. Similarly for different headers and footers on odd and even pages use 'Different odd and even'. Finally, in some cases (where you know the page number where no header or footer should appear, but need to avoid section breaks), you can use an IF field to insert the header only when the page number ({PAGE} field) is not equal to that number.

You do not need a section break for this. See the conditional fields at

Thanks Charles. I'll try that. The only issue I have with it is that
you'd need to manually figure out which page numbers to suppress with the conditional fields and using a different section would determine it automatically. Am I missing something?

No, you are not. If the page numbers will be changing, you'll want to go
with a section break. On the other hand, adding section breaks when you don't need to leads to document corruption. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
