I'm trying to create a fax template but have problmes with it.
1. I have designed a fax template (1st page) with form fill in fields. The
1st page of the template contains company name logo, address, etc. in the
header,
2. I'm having problem understanding how I can create a 2nd page that have a
different appearance than the 1st (want only company logo on the 2nd page
header)
3. How can I create a field on the 2nd page that shows the fax recipients
name automatically by taking the name from the form field on the first page

For the first question, you need to use the "Different first page" option.
See http://home.earthlink.net/~wordfaqs/Letterhead.htm for the general idea.

For the second, you can use a REF field (cross-reference to the bookmark of
the form field). See http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Repeating_Data.htm

Create a template that has a different first page header and put the info
you want into the second page header. I would recommend using a unique style
for the info on page 1 that you want reflected in the continuation headers
and using a StyleRef field in the header to pick this up. Take a look at:
How to set up letterhead or some other document where you want one header on
the first page and a different header on other pages.
http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This gives step-by-step
instructions. (It also has the following links)

Some other pages to look at:

Letterhead Tips and Instructions
http://home.earthlink.net/~wordfaqs/Letterhead.htm

Letterhead Textboxes and Styles tutorial
http://addbalance.com/word/download....StylesTutorial

Template Basics
http://www.addbalance.com/usersguide/templates.htm

How to Create a Template - Part 2 - essential reading

Word "Forms"
http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordw...rces.htm#Forms and

Word for Word Perfect Users
http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordperfect.htm if you are coming from a WP
environment (or even if you are not).

If you are interested in creating templates that will work with the letter
wizard or use that wizard, you should look at the chapter on Advanced
Document Formatting in Using Office 2003 (or whatever your version is),
Special Edition, by Ed Bott and Woody Leonhard. It has detailed instructions
including instructions on getting the fields you want from your Outlook
Contacts for addressing a letter. (Chapter 19 of SE Using Office 2003) You
should be able to get this through your public library or at Amazon.com
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/IS...ncecheckbookA/

Finally, take a look at the letter templates that come with Word. While they
are no great shakes as letterhead, they do use styles and AutoText lists
very well. If you use the same style names that are used in those templates
in your own letterhead for the same parts of the document, you will have
better luck with using the built-in AutoText entries in Word.

Hope this helps,
