Default Headers and Footers in Main Body with Table Breaks

If the information just needs to remain available, I would have thought that
once at the beginning of the table (header) and once at the end (footer)
would suffice.

HI,

Its not to convert it into .htm or .txt format but for some later

processing
which cannot have any headers and footers in it. The information in the
headers and footers for the document has to be retained though. So,

thereby,
I need to get the text out from the headers and footers and put it in the
main part of the document - Header above the table and footer below the

table
on each page of the document.

Thanks
Sanket

in
order to convert the document to .txt or .htm format (in which headers

and
footers are not retained)?

Hi Tony,

I might not have been very clear in my previous post. The purpose of

merging
different documents with multiple headers and footers is not my goal.

I am working with only one document at a time. When saying this I mean

that
the document has only one header, one footer and one table.
My task is
to get the text of the header part and put it as text above the

table.
Then to blank out the header - as in delete the text within it (not

delete the header itself).
Copy footer information as a footnote.
Blank out the footer - as in delete the text within it (not delete

the
footer itself).
Do the same on every page. i.e. paste the same header and footer

above
and below the table.

I will need to create a macro for this. So will have to code it in

VBA, I
guess.

If it is not possible to do it, I might as well not attempt it. But

somehow
I feel that my task is not going against the word pagination but just

about
cut-paste text from header and footer and about table breaks and page

breaks
at right locations.
To do it programmatically is still a monumental task for me.

Please advice.

Best regards,
Sanket
