Footer different on Last Page
I understand in word 2003 that you can identify that the first page footer is
unique from the rest of the document. Is there any way to identify that the last page of the footer is singularly different than all other pages, regardless if the page is 1 page or multiple pages (on a one page document, the last page footer would be used). I have a template with a signature merge field that must appear on the last page only. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks. |

Yes, this can be done (in any version of Word). You need the following
construction: { IF { PAGE } = { NUMPAGES } "Content to be placed on the last page only" } Each pair of field delimiters (the things that look like braces but can't be typed from the keyboard) must be inserted using Ctrl+F9, or you can use the Insert Page Number and Insert Number of Pages buttons on the Header and Footer toolbar to insert the { PAGE } and { NUMPAGES } fields. The text between quotes can be anything--a large chunk of content, a graphic, whatever. -- Suzanne S.

I'm sorry, but I'm still having a problem with this. The data I'm inserting
into the last page is a merge field - when it moves to first page, the data doesn't print...any ideas; it is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jim.

After I type in the line as you stated earlier, I place the merge field
elsewhere in the footer and then copy and paste it between the "" marks. I did review the link in another posting of this type at http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Conditiona...rs_Footers.htm My line is listed he {IF { PAGE } = { NUMPAGES }"Electronic Signatu { MERGEFIELD "VALIDNAME" } { MERGEFIELD "PATHO_QUALIF" }"""} I've tried using the statement as you listed below, without the true,false statements at the end of the line and get the same result. Also, I AM getting this information on a 1 page report, just not on multiple page reports. And, when I type this command into my template it is showing on the screen. If I close and reopen the template, the only text that appears is "Electronic Signature". I have to choose Tools, Options, View tab, and select Show - Field Codes to be able to see this information on the template again. Thanks for the assistance...., Jim. "Suzanne S.

Additional information to my previous response:
This footer not printing on documents with multiple pages is upon PRINT only. Viewing the report online shows the line in the last page footer... Thanks. "Suzanne S.

You could use Insert Merge Field to insert it directly in the IF field, but
the method you're using should work as well. -- Suzanne S.

I have checked the linked document and this not my issue...thanks for the
direction. My printer is new and it came with the printer driver. My area of print that is my concern is indented from the right margin and is the 2nd line of a 8 line footer; all other information is printing in the footer without incident. I hope there's a light at the end of this tunnel....thanks again, Jim. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: In that case, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...sDontPrint.htm -- Suzanne S.
