headers /footers
hi,
I'm using word 2003 to create stationary for my office. Many of the computers use, believe it or not, Word 97. Okay, now that you stopped laughing. We successfully created a header and footer and with a section break that creates a different footer on the 2nd page...or I should say, the same footer, but no header. The problem is that when people only use 1 page and they delete the 2nd page, the header and footer disappear. (on the first page) I am trying to create separate stationary for 1 page and for 2 pages, but now that I have created the section break and unlinked the previous header to the 2nd page, when I delete the section break, both the header and footer (on both pages) get deleted. I hope this makes sense. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Windows XP Meg |

Instead of using a Section Break, use the Different First Page option that
can be set via the Layout tab of the Page Setup dialog. Starting with just a one page template, set up the footer that you want for the second page, then set the Different First Page option (the footer that you set up for the second page will disappear, but don't worry, it will reappear when/if there is a second page) and then set up the header and footer that you want to appear on the first page. -- Hope this helps.

thanks, I will try that, but now I have the template set with the two pages
and can't delete the 2nd page. "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote in message ...

Is that can't, or don't want to. You don't have to. If you check the
different first page option and access the header and footer area when the first page is in view, you will get to the first page header/footer area. If you do it when the second page is in view, you will get to the primary header/footer area. -- Hope this helps.
