I am using Word 2003.
I just received a very long document from someone else to finalize. I need
to put a header/footer into the document, but when I click on the View
Header and Footer in the toolbar nothing happens. I don't get anything - No
box to add text to. I checked the page setup and "different first page" is
not checked. I tried putting the header on a different page but the same
thing happened - Nothing. I opened a new document and tried to put in a
header and there was no problem doing that.
What could be preventing me from adding a header to this document? I would
appreciate any help you can give me - ASAP. I am on a deadline.

Rather than waste any more time trying to sort it, I would just treat the
document as corrupt. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm
