Header footer question
Hello All
I'm having an issue with headers and footers. I don't want a header or footer on the first two pages of a document. At of the end of page 2, which is a TOC, I inserted a page break followed by a continous section break Sure enough, pages 1 and 2 are marked Section 1, and Page 3 is marked Section 2. But if I put a header and footer on page 3 and mark it unlinked to the previous header/footer (there isn't one anyway), a header/footer nonetheless is created on pages 1 and 2. Furthermore, page three begiins counting with number 2, even though I've used "insert page numbers" and set it to start with 1. (If I say start with 0, it then starts with 1) If I delete the header and footer that now appears on pages 1 and 2, the header and footer disappears in the the rest of the document, even though Sections 1 and 2 are unlinked. Any thoughts about what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for any help. Anthony Giorgianni For everyone's beneift, please post back to the group. |

Header footer question
Hi Anthony,
Instead of inserting a page break then a continuous Section break after page 2, insert a 'Next page' Section break at the end of page 2. Next, in the header/footer of the page 3 that results from this, unlink the header/footer from the previous Section and then apply the header/footer numbering/formatting that you require. -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "Anthony Giorgianni" wrote in message ...
