Default How do you move the whole header horizontally (not just the text)

I cannot move the whole header right. I can align the text inside the header
box, but I need to move the box itself. I know how to adjust the vertical
position, I want to adjust the horizontal position of the header box. Can
anyone help? Thank you.

Set the indents (positive or negative) of the paragraphs in the header so
that the text is positioned where you want it to be.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately the indents are both set to 0. It's not
the text I want to move, it's the entire header box. It's just this one
document, but the box itself is aligned more to the left then all my other
documents.

Right. You have to apply indents as needed to move the header. You can't
move the "header box," as its position is determined by the page margins,
but you can move the header by applying positive/negative indents.

Krystal:

So far as I know, the header box MUST have the same left and right margins
as the page.

The only "misalignments" I've ever seen arise from Word being confused about
pagination, and showing an even header on an odd page etc. This is usually a
conflict between break types and starting page number settings.

You could try deleting all the section breaks then recreating them. Work in
Normal view with all your nonprinting marks showing. Use Find and Replace to
delete the section breaks to make sure you get them all.
