Change HEADER titles on different pages
I created a merged directory booklet. I want to have a different header for
each new section of this booklet. Is this possible, or what else can I do so that the new title prints on ALL the pages of its section? For example, the first section of names (pages 1-3) relate to our family named SMITH, so I want SMITH to be the header on pages 1-3. The second section of names (pages 4-6) relate to one side of my family named CLANCY, so I want CLANCY to be the header on pages 4-6. The third section of names (7-9) relate to another side of my family named DOE, so I want DOE to print on pages 7-9. The last section should be titled OTHER. How can I accomplish this? |

Change HEADER titles on different pages
Hello tjsmags,
You can edit the header for each section by ensuring you have section breaks at the end of each family's section, then going to the first page of the new family's page, choosing the "view" drop-down menu, and "headers and footers" and then ensuring each of these new sections' headers do not state "same as previous" and typing the appropriate family's name into the header for each different section. You will need to do that at the beginning of each new section, but that should do it for you. Hope this helps! Please reply through the newsgroup (personal consulting can be arranged and charged at my hourly rate). Thanks! Elizabeth A.

Change HEADER titles on different pages
I'm confused. I did do PAGE BREAKS at each new section, is that the same as
section breaks (what you said)? Also, when I go to page 7 (the new section), I view HEADERS AND FOOTERS, but there's nothing that says 'same as previous.' When I go under FORMAT PAGE NUMBER under headers and footers there's a bullet by 'continue from previous section,' but this only pertains to the page number. Help! "Elizabeth A.

No, Page Breaks and Section Breaks are not the same thing. However, for
what you want to do, you need to use a StyleRef field. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

Change HEADER titles on different pages
Hi tjsmags,
Once you have completed the merge and have your completed document on your screen, click "view", "header and footer" and create what you want your Smith header to look like. Enter the name, the page number, etc., and make it exactly as you want the headers to read. Once you have done this step we will change the names next. Now place your cursor at the end of each group of surnames and click on "insert", then "break" then under "section break types" you will click on "next page". You will do this at the end of the Smith listings, the end of the Clancy listings, and the end of the Doe listings. Do not create one at the end of the "Other" listings. Once you have done this step, you will need to go to the first page of each section, ie: the page on which the first entry of the new surname (Clancy, Doe or Other) is located. Place your cursor on that page (click your mouse). Then click "view", "header and footer", and the toolbar will pop up on your screen. If you count left from the "close" button, the fourth button to the left will say "same as previous", you will need to click on that button. Then, change the name Smith to Clancy and click close. Repeat this section for Doe and Other. Hope this helps. Elizabeth A. Bañuelos, MOS Master "tjsmags" wrote: I'm confused.
