Default Side Headers?

While we're waiting for an MVP to see this - I don't know of a "side header,"
per se, but you could use the Text Box functionality to create text in your
left margin.

Just go to Insert Text Box - and you can use the built-ins or configure
it yourself.

HTH!

No need to wait -- your answer is what I'd recommend, even taking a look at
the sidebar examples in Text Box gallery on the Insert tab. :-)

I think "sidebar" is what "qbcannon" is referring to anyway.

Thanx to both of you, it certainly was my answer. My professor referred to it
as a Side Header so i was mislead. Thanx again.

FWIW, I'm not sure "side header" is wrong, I've only heard it referred to as
sidebar.

Glad to hear you found what you were looking for whatever it should be
called. ;-)

Default Side Headers?

A sidebar would be some text -- at least a paragraph -- of related but
extraneous material, often with a border around it and/or a background
fill color.

A sidehead would be a header that's in the margin instead of over the
text.

No reason Word would think of them as different things; they'd simply
get formatted with different styles.

Recall also the recent discussion of Frames as well as Text Boxes.
