My "Same as Previous" and other Header/Footer buttons are gone!
Help! My Header and Footer toolbars have disappeared. I no longer have a
"Same as Previous" and "Link to Previous" buttons to press, which means I can't have different footers for different sections. Anyone know how this might have happened? View Header and Footer gets me to the Footer, but the buttons are gone. I tried looking for a Header and Footer toolbar that might be turned off, but can't find it. |

While your cursor is in a header or footer, click Tools Customize.
Go to the Toolbars tab of the dialog and make sure there's a checkmark next to "Header and Footer". (This item isn't even in the list if the cursor isn't in a header or footer.) If that doesn't do it, try this. With the cursor still in the header/footer area, press Alt+F11 to open the macro editor. Press Ctrl+G to open the Immediate window, and paste in this line and press Enter: Application.CommandBars("Header and Footer").Visible = True -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

Which version of Word are you using? That may very well make a difference &
is always good info to provide. The H/F toolbar is one that cannot be summoned *or* dismissed - it is totally contextual. Are you sure it isn't on screen somewhere... Docked in an unusual location, perhaps? While you are in the H/F layer go to ViewH/F, then go to ToolsCustomizeToolbars & you should see that there is a check check the box which can't be removed. However, you can click on its name, then click the Reset button, which may help. You might also try the Help MenuDetect & Repair feature if the Reset idea doesn't work. See ( http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/MissingMenusEtc.htm ) for more severe issues involving the registry.
