Default Delete multiple headers

I inherited a 184 page Word file. Each page has a header with a
manually inserted page number. I want to delete all the headers so
that I can start from scratch and format the headers correctly. Is
there any way to delete multiple headers at the same time?

Default Delete multiple headers

One approach, try this on a COPY. Use Find and Replace to Find all
Section Breaks and replace them with nothing.

To have a manual page number, each page must be its own section--which
is not a good way to deal with Word. That F&R will bring it down to a
single section. Expand the Find dialog by clicking More, if necessary,
and use the Special menu to enter to code to Find a section break.
