headers
I'm trying to setup a template in WORD. I want a header on the first page
and a footer on all pages. How do I do this? I setup the first page header, but where and how do I find the subsequent page headers? The template has only one page. I don't see where I can add or insert pages. Lastly, if I create a document(s) from one template, then later edit that template, will the changes propogate through all docs or do I need to update in some way? thanks! |

Hi Shank,
I'm trying to setup a template in WORD. I want a header on the first page and a footer on all pages. How do I do this? I setup the first page header, but where and how do I find the subsequent page headers? The template has only one page. I don't see where I can add or insert pages. Go to the end of that first page and press Ctrl+Enter. This will insert a manual page break. Create the second page headers and footers, then delete the page break. Word will remember what you defined, even if you can't see it until additional pages are generated while typing. Lastly, if I create a document(s) from one template, then later edit that template, will the changes propogate through all docs or do I need to update in some way? No. The only thing that can, possibly, propagate are style definitions. Nothing else. AutoText entries, macros, toolbars and keyboard assignments would also "shine through" (not propagate, as that implies the objects actually being IN the documents). Changing anything else (such as margins) would require a macro solution.

Go to the end of your template, use the menu INSERT BREAK, PAGE BREAK.
Be sure you are in the second page of your template and use the menu VIEW, HEADER & FOOTER. Find the buttons with the little arrowheads. You should be able to move between the first page header and the header with those buttons. The above assumes that you have properly use the "Use different first page" header/footer button on the PAGE SETUP, LAYOUT menu. Word assumes that if you click the button that *both* a separate 1st page header *and* footer will be used. You can't specify only a 1st page header, but uniform footer. |

Almost there....
I put a logo on the first page that requires the header to be 1.5" high. I just want the company name on subsequent pages, which requires the header only be .5" high. I have the logo in place and also the company name. But when I change the vertical height of one header, the other also changes. How can I get them to be totally independent? thanks!

comprehensive article on a difficult subject
Stop it! After I figured out how to do two different headers, the actual steps could have been broken down to a half-dozen or so bullet items. That's all that's needed. For those that would like to wonder off into drifting thoughts, you could have put the other 22 paragraphs of creative writing at the bottom of the page. It was not my intention to insult. Live well!

Find the buttons with the little arrowheads. You should be able to move between the first page header and the header with those buttons. The above assumes that you have properly use the "Use different first page" header/footer button on the PAGE SETUP, LAYOUT menu. Word assumes that if you click the button that *both* a separate 1st page header *and* footer will be used. You can't specify only a 1st page header, but uniform footer. |

After I figured out how to do two different headers, the actual steps could have been broken down to a half-dozen or so bullet items. That's all that's needed. For those that would like to wonder off into drifting thoughts, you could have put the other 22 paragraphs of creative writing at the bottom of the page. It was not my intention to insult. Live well!

complex letterhead" section, which addresses your issue. -- Suzanne S.
