Have trouble with letter head and first page different
I have a template that's setup with letter head.
Now I want to create a document that has more then one page. I want the letter head to only be on the first page. When I go into Page Setup\Layout and select "Different first page" my letter head ends up on the second page and the first page has no header. Should I have done something different? Do I have to create a two page template to make this work? Is it possible to tell Word that you want the current header and footer on the first page the rest different? Thanks Kelvin |

Have trouble with letter head and first page different
See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm for instructions for
starting from a blank template, and for general background. When you select "Different first page" in the Layout dialog, Word creates a separate header and footer for the first page, and anything you already had in the header or footer is assigned to the ones for the rest of the pages. The easiest thing to do now is to open the header pane for page 2, select and cut everything there, click the Previous button on the Header toolbar to go to the First Page header, and paste the text there. -- 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.
