Thanks for that Jacob. Unfortunately it only partly solves the problem
because I really need the complete H/F toolbar. I am an IT trainer and use
H/F's with my trainees and use the H/F toolbar a lot, especially to show how
to break the link between Same As Previous etc! Luckily this is only
happening with my home computer so fa. I am the only one using this computer
so have no idea why all of a sudden this particular toolbar is not working!
Another thing I've tried is going into View/Toolbars/Customise and trying to
put a tick in the H/F toolbar there but it doesn't allow me to do this. I
guess this could be the main problem but once again don't know why it's not
working .... very baffling!

If anyone else comes up with any other ideas to find the missing toolbar I
would certainly welcome them! Thanks all the same. I appreciate your taking
the time to respond.

I've only got the quick fix. That's a good question. To get you buy for
now go to VIEW TOOLBARS then AUTOTEXT. This will let you get your autotext
in the headers/footers.

I can't imagine why it's not automatically coming up. It's designed to.
Make sure you look around sometimes another computer user (my four year old)
may have moved it to someplace where it's hiding within the window.

Good Luck!

When I am inserting headers and footers in a Word document I don't get the
Header & Footer TOOLBAR. The only thing that appears is the header area of
the document or the footer area, WITHOUT the toolbar, which I usually use for
inserting page numbers, breaking the links between sections etc. HELP????
