Headers & Footers
Hi
I would like to create a template where the first page header is different. However, if my document is only one page worth of text I do not want the second page to show. I can only create a template that has a different first page header if I have 2 pages in my template. How can I set a page 2 onwards header without having a page 2? I hope this makes sense. Many thanks in advance. Kerry. |

Many thanks in advance. Kerry. While you're designing your template, insert a manual page break so you can get access to both the first-page and other-pages headers. Set them up the way you want, and then delete the manual page break before saving the template. The template will "remember" the other-pages header even though it isn't visible. When you base documents on the template, they will show the proper headers. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |

Take a look at: How to set up letterhead or some other document where you
want one header on the first page and a different header on other pages. http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This gives step-by-step instructions. (It also has the following links) Some other pages to look at: Letterhead Tips and Instructions http://home.earthlink.net/~wordfaqs/Letterhead.htm Letterhead Textboxes and Styles tutorial http://addbalance.com/word/download....StylesTutorial Template Basics http://www.addbalance.com/usersguide/templates.htm How to Create a Template - Part 2 - essential reading http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Custom...platePart2.htm Word "Forms" http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordw...rces.htm#Forms and Word for Word Perfect Users http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordperfect.htm if you are coming from a WP environment (or even if you are not). If you are interested in creating templates that will work with the letter wizard or use that wizard, you should look at the chapter on Advanced Document Formatting in Using Office 2003 (or whatever your version is), Special Edition, by Ed Bott and Woody Leonhard. It has detailed instructions including instructions on getting the fields you want from your Outlook Contacts for addressing a letter. (Chapter 19 of SE Using Office 2003) You should be able to get this through your public library or at Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/IS...ncecheckbookA/ Finally, take a look at the letter templates that come with Word. While they are no great shakes as letterhead, they do use styles and AutoText lists very well. If you use the same style names that are used in those templates in your own letterhead for the same parts of the document, you will have better luck with using the built-in AutoText entries in Word.
