Different Header/Footer for Pages
I have been looking around the internet and cannot find a way to change the
header in a Word document from page to page. The closest I've gotten is by Page Setup and selecting the Odd/Even option, but that isn't doing the trick. What I want, specifically, is for the entire document to have the same header, but not on a handful of pages. This "handful" of pages (of an about-15 page doc) has no Odd/Even-paged pattern; they're just random. I need a solution. Anyone? |

Different Header/Footer for Pages
You are very close, it is indeed to do with inserting a new Section Break
(Insert, Break, Next Page) prior to the new section and at the end. Beware of Different First Page settings (via Page Setup). Odd/Even Page breaks are used when doing duplex (double-sided) printing. Once the Section Breaks have been inserted, the "Same as Previous" setting (shows up on the Header/Footer toolbar as Link to Previous icon) will require cancelling to allow edits to be made to the new Header/Footer. If the different header is require to purely reflect a change in "chapter" title, you can do this without Section Breaks and the use of a field called StyleRef which will repeat the specified Style text in the Header/Footer. Also see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...tercontent.htm for further info.

Evidently you searching didn't include Word Help:-) The first topic listed
when using the keyword "Header" links to the following page: http://office.microsoft.com/training/training.aspx?AssetID=RC102395081033&pid=CR1006545 61033&ofcresset=1 -- HTH |:) Bob Jones Office:Mac MVP "SCMF" wrote in message ...
