how to delete some pages entirely but not change anything of other pages'(including page header and page footer)?
I am editing a word document. I want to delete many pages entirely from the
beginning to the place where I will start to edit. But how can I delete the pages conveniently? I select the content of these pages,then delete. But after I did this, all pages' header and footer are lost and all pages' automatic numbering are changed(I mean starting from 1). |

Since you are losing headers and footers when deleting the first
pages, the document consists of at least two sections whose headers/footers are linked. (To see how many sections there are in the document, go to the last page and then look at the status bar: Which number displays after "Sec"?) In the second section, click View | Header and Footer. Click the Same as Previous / Link to Previous button on the Header and Footer toolbar to unlink headers. Repeat this for the footer. If you enabled "Different first page" and "Different odd and even," your document has three different headers (and footers) for each section. You will have to unlink each of those separately. If there are more than two sections, repeat for any subsequent sections. When you've done the above, you should be able to delete the pages that you want to get rid of. If you want page numbering to start at a value different from 1, change this in the Page Number Format dialog box (access it by clicking the Format Page Number button on the Header and Footer toolbar). For more about headers and footers, page numbering, and sections, see http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/HeaderFooter.htm, http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Numbering/PageNumbering.htm, and http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...thSections.htm. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Zhukf" wrote in message ...
