Put a Section Break at the end of the document before you insert the next
one and unlink the headers and footers in that section from those in the previous Section. Or alternatively (and this may work better), insert a next page section break at the beginning of each document before inserting it and unlink the header in the section containing the text from that in the section before it. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

When you access the Header or Footer area of a document, the Header & Footer
Tools Design tab will be added to the Ribbon and in the Navigation section of that tab of the ribbon, there is a "Link to Previous" button that will appear with an orange back ground if the header/footer in the current section is linked to that in the previous one. Clicking on that button toggles the link on and off. -- Hope this helps, Doug Robbins - Word MVP Please reply only to the newsgroups unless you wish to obtain my services on a paid professional basis.
